The open platform where the machine learning community hosts models, datasets, and AI apps
Search, download, and publish across millions of models and hundreds of thousands of datasets, complete with model cards, versioning, and citations.
Deploy Gradio, Streamlit, or static apps directly from a repository to show off a model, run comparisons, or share a tool with a public link.
Transformers, Diffusers, Datasets, Tokenizers, Accelerate, PEFT, TRL, and smolagents give you end-to-end tooling for training, fine-tuning, and inference.
Inference Providers route a single API to tens of thousands of models from multiple vendors, while Inference Endpoints spin up dedicated GPU hardware on demand.
Open-source database of AI models, prices and capabilities
Every model uses a consistent provider/model format so the same model across providers can be compared directly.
Side-by-side context window, output limit, reasoning, tool calling, structured output, and temperature support.
Input and output prices per million tokens listed alongside release and update dates.
Covers closed flagship APIs and open-weight models from many labs in one sortable catalogue.
SpecialistA unified API gateway routing requests across hundreds of language models, but lacking dataset hosting.
