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.
Build, train, and deploy computer vision for the physical world
Label thousands of images in minutes using frontier models and custom filters, then curate datasets for training.
Combine detection, tracking, and logic blocks to orchestrate actions, update databases, and connect to industrial systems.
Run high-speed inference in the cloud or on edge devices, processing live video and images wherever the application lives.
Get into production quickly with an agent that sees the world, understands what is happening, and triggers actions.
