Walkthrough
How hugpad works
From your Hugging Face repository to model discovery — and the path to an ownership-checked Solana launch.
1.Hugging Face
Build and publish your model
Your repository stays the source of truth. Model weights, documentation and license live on the Hugging Face Hub, exactly where developers expect them.

2.Ownership
Connect and verify ownership
Sign in with Hugging Face to find your public models. Access is based on your account or an organization where you have an admin or write role — not a site-wide verification badge.

Configure and launch your token
Choose token details, upload your picture, review the simulated cost, and sign with your Solana wallet. Token creation uses the official pump.fun program, with no automatic initial buy. A token never grants rights to the underlying model.

Requires wallet approval and SOL. Simulation is not a guarantee of success.

4.Discovery
Let the community find you
Models and creator profiles are discoverable through the live Hugging Face Hub. Successful pump.fun launches appear in the directory and on their own coin pages after independent Solana confirmation. Admin-linked coins do not imply creator endorsement.
