What is hugpad?
hugpad brings model discovery and creator-led token creation into one place. Browse public repositories from the Hugging Face Hub, read model documentation, explore the accounts behind the work, and prepare a pump.fun token launch for a repository you control.
Browsing does not require a wallet or a Hugging Face sign-in. Launching does: your repository access is checked against Hugging Face, and your own Solana wallet signs the transaction.
Three distinct parts
| Area | What it provides |
|---|---|
| Models | Searchable public Hub repositories, reported statistics, model cards, tags, and recent commits. Browse the model guide. |
| Creators | Real Hub accounts, available profile information, and published models. Explore creator discovery. |
| Launch | Repository-access checks, public token media, transaction preparation, and wallet-approved creation on pump.fun. Understand the launch flow. |
Our data principles
- Real sources, not invented numbers. Models and creator information come from the Hub. Short-lived caching reduces repeated requests; it does not replace unavailable data with sample listings.
- Missing means unavailable. An absent count or date is not a zero. Tags and descriptions are only shown when reported or available from the model card.
- Access is checked, not assumed. A creator badge does not authorize a launch; repository namespace and organization role do.
- Confirmation before success. A signed transaction or submitted request is not a confirmed token launch.
Hugging Face and inference providers
Hugging Face powers model discovery, profiles, documentation, and sign-in. Inference is a separate operation: actually sending input to a running model.
Groq provides hosted inference for its supported models. This version of hugpad has no live Groq inference connection or model-chat experience. The Groq guide explains the distinction and links to its official resources.
What a token does not mean
A token is not ownership of the model
Choose your next step
Start with the quickstart for a practical walkthrough. Read model cards and licenses before using a model, and review security and safety before approving a transaction.
The Launches page lists successful pump.fun creations after server-side Solana confirmation. Admin-linked repositories are distinguished from launches with checked repository control. Prices and rankings are never invented.
