Hugging Face and Google partner for open AI collaboration

11/13/2025 Update: we announced a new and deeper partnership with Google Cloud to enable companies to build their own AI with open models!

At Hugging Face, we want to enable all companies to build their own AI, leveraging open models and open source technologies. Our goal is to build an open platform, making it easy for data scientists, machine learning engineers and developers to access the latest models from the community, and use them within the platform of their choice.

Today, we are thrilled to announce our strategic partnership with Google Cloud to democratize good machine learning. We will collaborate with Google across open science, open source, cloud, and hardware to enable companies to build their own AI with the latest open models from Hugging Face and the latest cloud and hardware features from Google Cloud.

A collaboration for open science

From the original Transformer to the Vision Transformer, Google has published some of the most important contributions to open AI research and prompted the AI community to change the World one model at a time, with now over 1 million models, datasets and AI applications based on transformer models hosted on Hugging Face.

Our strategic partnership will help amplify efforts led by Google and Hugging Face to make the latest AI research more accessible to the community.

A collaboration for open source

From Tensorflow to JAX, Google has contributed some of the most important open source tools, enabling researchers and data scientists to build their own AI models and create a virtuous cycle of model performance improvement through rapid iteration.

Our strategic partnership will accelerate our collaboration to make the latest AI innovations easily accessible through Hugging Face open-source libraries, whichever framework you use.

A collaboration for Google Cloud customers

Today, hundreds of thousands of Hugging Face users are active on Google Cloud every month, downloading models to create Generative AI applications.
