Hugging Face Spaces Review 2026: How to Use the AI App Directory

Explore 1.4M+ live AI apps

Hugging Face Spaces hosts over 1,449,162 running Spaces, covering image generation, video generation, text generation, language translation, speech synthesis, 3D modeling, music generation, object detection, text analysis, image editing, code generation, question answering, data visualization, voice cloning, background removal, image upscaling, OCR, document analysis, visual QA, image captioning, chatbots, sentiment analysis, text summarization, medical imaging, financial analysis, game AI, model benchmarking, fine-tuning tools, dataset creation, pose estimation, face recognition, anomaly detection, recommendation systems, character animation, style transfer, and agent environments.

Find a ready-to-use AI app for almost any task without writing code.

Run apps instantly in your browser

Spaces are rendered in a real browser and run live. Examples include MiniMax H3 Turbo LoRA for video generation with synchronized soundtrack, Wan2.2 Animate 2 14B for animating a character image with a driving video, and Maple WebGPU for running Maple-Preview privately in-browser with WebGPU.

Test AI models interactively before integrating them into your workflow.

Choose CPU, ZERO, or dedicated GPUs

Spaces can run on CPU, on ZERO (free tier), or on dedicated hardware like A10G. Many Spaces display 'Running on ZERO' or 'Running on A10G' badges, indicating the hardware they use. You can also upgrade to PRO for more resources.

Scale from free prototyping to production-grade inference with flexible hardware.

Discover trending and curated Spaces

The directory includes 'Spaces of the week', 'Featured' badges, and filters for sorting by relevance or trending. Examples include Prompt Routing with LFM2.5 Encoder on CPU, Audio8 TTS Preview for voice cloning, and Krea 2 Turbo BBox for layout-controlled comics.

Stay updated with the latest community innovations and popular AI apps.

Build your own Space with 'New Space'

The platform encourages users to create and share their own AI apps. A 'New Space' button is prominently available, and the directory lists many user-created Spaces, such as 'Agent Memory Leaderboard' and 'CharacterSheet LoRA Demo'.

Publish your AI demos and contribute to the largest open AI app ecosystem.

Part of the Hugging Face platform

Spaces integrates with Hugging Face Models, Datasets, Buckets, Inference Providers, Inference Endpoints, and Storage Buckets. It also supports MCP (Model Context Protocol) and Agents, as seen in Spaces like 'LFM2.5 Edge Research Agent' and 'Wan2.2 Animate 2 14B'.

Leverage the full Hugging Face ecosystem for model hosting, data, and deployment.

• AI App DirectoryHugging Face Spaces is described as 'The AI App Directory', hosting a wide range of AI applications including image generation, video generation, text generation, language translation, speech synthesis, 3D modeling, music generation, object detection, text analysis, image editing, code generation, question answering, data visualization, voice cloning, background removal, image upscaling, OCR, document analysis, visual QA, image captioning, chatbots, sentiment analysis, text summarization, medical imaging, financial analysis, game AI, model benchmarking, fine-tuning tools, dataset creation, pose estimation, face recognition, anomaly detection, recommendation systems, character animation, style transfer, and agent environments.
• Featured SpacesThe page highlights featured Spaces such as 'MiniMax H3 Turbo LoRA' for video generation with synchronized soundtrack, 'Prompt Routing' for routing prompts with LFM2.5 Encoder on CPU, 'CADENA Stepwise CAD' for turning 3D meshes into parametric CadQuery programs, and 'Audio8 TTS Preview 0.6B' for voice cloning and speech generation in any language.
• Running on Zero AgentsMany Spaces are marked as 'Running on Zero Agents', indicating they are actively running without requiring agent resources. Examples include 'Wan2.2 14B Fast Preview' for generating animated videos from a single image, 'Qwen-Image-Edit-2511-LoRAs-Fast' for image editing, and 'MiniMax-H3 Ultra Fast' for ultra-fast local video and audio generation.
• Community and Featured ContentThe page includes a section 'Image Spaces of the week' and features a variety of community-created Spaces. It also lists 'Featured' items like 'Krea 2 Turbo BBox' for layout-controlled comics and 'LFM2.5 Edge Research Agent' for on-device research with WebGPU.

• Paid tiers are account-wide, not Spaces-onlyPRO ($9/mo), Team ($20/user/mo), and Enterprise ($50/user/mo) apply to the whole Hugging Face account -- Hub storage, Inference Providers, and more -- not a Spaces-specific subscription.
• Hardware and ResourcesSome Spaces are labeled with hardware like 'Running on A10G' or 'Running on CPU Upgrade Agents', but the page does not explain what these mean or how they are allocated. Avoid making claims about resource availability or performance.
• Third-Party IntegrationsThe page lists many Spaces with names like 'MiniMax', 'LiquidAI', 'Wan2.2', 'FLUX.2', and 'Qwen', but it does not state any official integrations or partnerships with these entities. Do not infer any formal relationships.
• Most Spaces are community-uploadedThe vast majority of the 1.4M+ Spaces are unmoderated community uploads -- quality, stability, and uptime vary widely between individual apps.

Video Generation

Create videos from text prompts, image inputs, or driving videos. Spaces like MiniMax H3 Turbo LoRA generate video with synchronized soundtracks, while Wan2.2 Animate 2 14B animates a character image using a driving video.

Image Editing & Generation

Edit images with tools like Pro Realism Edit Studio (supports one or two input images) or Omni Image Editor (image edit, text to image, upscale, watermark removal). Generate multi-view character sheets from a single image using FLUX.2 LoRA demos.

Audio & Music Creation

Clone voices and generate spoken audio with Audio8 TTS Preview 0.6B, or create custom music tracks from text captions and lyrics using MiniMax Music 3 Studio.

On-Device AI & Agents

Run models privately in your browser with WebGPU, such as Maple-Preview or LFM2.5-VL-3B. Explore research agents like LFM2.5 Edge Research Agent, or route prompts efficiently with LFM2.5 Encoder on CPU.

Browse the Spaces directory and try a running demo for free -- no account needed to test most apps on CPU or ZeroGPU hardware.
