About Hugging Face
Hugging Face is the leading platform for open-source artificial intelligence, often described as the GitHub of machine learning. Developers and companies use its hub to share, download and run millions of open AI models, datasets and applications, and roughly half of the Fortune 500 use the platform. Hugging Face makes money by selling paid subscriptions, enterprise hub plans, inference services and compute infrastructure to the small share of users who need advanced features, while keeping the platform free for everyone else. The company also builds affordable open-source robots such as Reachy Mini through its acquisition of Pollen Robotics.
Important Updates
Hugging Face was acquired by Nvidia (NVDA) for $12.93 billion in September 2026. The purchase gives Nvidia a strong foothold in the world of open-source AI, which may help it protect its dominance in AI chips as most of the largest closed-source AI labs (OpenAI, Google, Amazon, and Anthropic) are now building their own chips.
