About Spaces

Spaces are hosted apps on Hugging Face — Gradio, Streamlit, Docker, or static — with free CPU tiers and paid GPU upgrades. They're how most models ship a public demo.

Common Spaces issues

  • Cold-start delay

    See /learn/spaces-cold-start-explained. Free CPU Spaces sleep after 48h and wake on demand — typically 10–30s.

  • OOM on free tier

    16GB isn't enough for many modern models. Quantize to int8/int4, or upgrade to a GPU tier with more VRAM.

  • Rate-limited by upstream API

    A Space that calls the Serverless Inference API inherits the shared rate limits. Ship an HF_TOKEN in Space secrets to get authenticated quotas.

Background

Spaces launched in 2021 as a simple way to publish Gradio demos next to a model card. It has grown into a full app-hosting product with GPU tiers, persistent storage, ZeroGPU for Pro users, and Docker support — hosting hundreds of thousands of live demos.

Frequently asked

Why is my Space sleeping?
Free-tier Spaces sleep after 48 hours of inactivity to conserve capacity. Upgrade to a paid hardware tier for always-on, or accept the cold-start on the next visit.
Space build stuck 'Building'?
Docker Spaces with heavy CUDA layers can build for 10+ min. If it's stuck past 30 min, restart the Space — the queue occasionally strands jobs.
