Shows daily download history, likes and derivative families for models on the Hugging Face Hub since July 2024, with a model comparison chart and weekly rankings. It suits model builders and researchers. Model Pulse is a kit in the Research category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-12. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself. Made by tardellirs ## About ### What it is Model Pulse tracks how models on the Hugging Face Hub are downloaded and liked. It keeps daily history going back to July 2024. It also separates direct use from use through models derived from it. ### Who it suits Model builders, researchers and analysts who want to see which models are growing and which families dominate. It is an independent project and has no tie to Hugging Face. Who watches model trends | Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AI research | Researchers | Track how a model's downloads and likes change over time | Look up a model and read its daily history | | Model publishing | Model authors | See how much of their reach comes from quantizations and fine-tunes | Check a base model's derivative family | | Analysis | Analysts and writers | Put as many as five models side by side on a single chart | Chart several competing models together | | Community | Hub users | Read the weekly rankings for new breakouts | See which models grew fastest this week | If you need download numbers for something other than Hub models, you can skip it. ### Where to use it - A web browser: the Space runs on Hugging Face with nothing to install - Windows, macOS or Linux, by opening the downloaded page in a browser - The README of a model, through the badge it offers | Use case | Who | What they get back | | --- | --- | --- | | Look up one model | Researchers | Daily downloads, likes and derivative families | | Compare models | Analysts | Up to five models drawn on one chart | | Watch the weekly rankings | Community members | Lists of the most downloaded, fastest growing and new breakouts | | Add a badge to a README | Model authors | Monthly downloads with a sparkline, updated daily | ### How to set it up To use it online you need nothing. To keep a copy of the page you need Python and pip for the download. - A web browser - Python with pip, only to download a copy 1. Install the Hugging Face hub package and download the Space into a folder. 2. Move into that folder. 3. Load index.html into your browser. ```sh pip install -U huggingface_hub hf download tardellirs/model-pulse --repo-type space --local-dir model-pulse cd model-pulse ``` ### How to use it Open the page and browse the rankings, or ask for one model by adding a model parameter to the page address in the form below. A second parameter picks a special view, either galaxy or wrapped. ```text ?model=org/name ?view=galaxy ?view=wrapped ``` | Tool | What it does | | --- | --- | | Model lookup | Shows one model's daily download history, likes and derivative families | | Compare | Draws up to five models on one chart | | Derivative share | Shows how much reach comes from quantizations, fine-tunes, adapters and merges | | Galaxy | Draws every model built on a base model as a galaxy | | Wrapped | Summarizes one author's past year on the Hub as six cards | | Weekly rankings | Ranks models by downloads, speed of growth, new breakouts and family size, and ranks organizations | ### Example You look up Qwen/Qwen3-8B. You see its daily downloads and likes since July 2024, and how much of its reach comes from quantizations, fine-tunes, adapters and merges of it. ### For newcomers and experts If you are new to this, open the Space and read the weekly rankings first. Then look up one model you already use and see how its downloads have moved. If you know the field, the numbers come from daily snapshots of cfahlgren1/hub-stats, compiled into the dataset modelpulse/model-pulse-data. Splitting a model's reach by quantizations, fine-tunes, adapters and merges separates direct use from use through derivatives. Download counts are the Hub's own, so they carry whatever limits those counts have. Daily snapshots of Hub stats → Compiled into one dataset → The page reads that dataset → You see history, rankings and families ### Good to know - Independence: made by an outside author with no link to Hugging Face - Range: daily history goes back to July 2024 - License: apache-2 - Cost to run: none named - Data it reaches: the two Hugging Face datasets it names, cfahlgren1/hub-stats and modelpulse/model-pulse-data ## README ````markdown # Model Pulse Shows daily download history, likes and derivative families for models on the Hugging Face Hub since July 2024, with a model comparison chart and weekly rankings.
