About
Gradio is a Python library for building web interfaces around machine learning models and other Python functions. It provides high-level components such as textboxes, images, audio, plots, chatbots, dataframes, sliders, file explorers, and video inputs so developers can assemble demos and interactive apps without writing frontend code.
The library includes launch helpers for local hosting and public sharing, plus support for Hugging Face Spaces deployment. It is aimed at developers who want to prototype, test, and publish ML demos quickly while keeping the application logic in Python.
- Python-based web UI for ML models
- 40+ built-in interface components
- Local launch and public share links
- Hugging Face Spaces hosting support
- Queueing and load event handling
- Interface, Blocks, and ChatInterface APIs
Free Tier Value
The provided page text is documentation for the open-source Gradio library, not a paid pricing page, and it describes launching demos locally or with a public share link via share=True. No pricing, credit, trial, or paid-plan information is shown, so there is no concrete paid tier to anchor a free-tier valuation. Because the listing_type is given as always_free and the product is self-hosted/open-source, the free tier is treated as unbounded with no credit/trial value to compute.
What's included in the free tier
- Publicly shareable link for the app.
- Queue support with position/status updates.
- Up to 20 queued events maximum.
- Basic app analytics/monitoring endpoint.
- Authentication with username/password access control.
- Custom file upload size limit setting.
- Installable PWA support on Spaces.
- MCP server support for documented functions.
- Deep-link sharing of current app state.
- API endpoint visibility controls (public, private, undocumented).
See Gradio pricing for current limits.
