Hugging Face trending models
hf-trending-models · platform-standard · by WITAN · created 2026-09-29 · updated 5 hours ago · freeAI summary — as of v21
This dataset contains 2,100 records tracking the top 100 trending models on Hugging Face Hub, captured every 6 hours over 21 snapshots. Each record includes the model's rank, trending score, download counts (30-day and all-time), likes, task type, library, license, creation and modification dates, and tags—providing a time-series view of how models rise and fall in the trending rankings.
README
The hundred models trending on the Hugging Face Hub, as the Hub ranks them at the moment of the snapshot: rank and trending score, downloads over the last 30 days and all time, likes, task (pipeline tag), library, license, whether access is gated, when the repository was created and last modified, and its first tags. Taken every 6 hours; every row carries the snapshot time and the rank, so the dataset is a time series of the trending list — what rose, what held, what fell. Source: the Hub's public models API (GET /api/models?sort=trendingScore), read with a contact User-Agent; the trending score and download counts are the Hub's own figures, reproduced as reported. Model cards and weights are not copied; only the listing. The license column is the license each model's card declares, not a license for this dataset. License: the WITAN Standard License covers this compilation — the snapshots, their schedule and the records as arranged here; the listing itself comes from Hugging Face, whose terms apply to it: https://huggingface.co/terms-of-service.
