ZeroGPU hosting option unavailable for eligible free account bear-ty
Hello Hugging Face team,
I would like to host a Gradio demo using ZeroGPU, but the ZeroGPU option is not available for my account.
Account information:
- Username: bear-ty
- Profile: https://huggingface.co/bear-ty
- Account created: July 21, 2026
- Account age: more than 30 days
- Email verified: Yes
- Current number of Spaces: 0
- Plan: Free
According to the ZeroGPU documentation, free personal accounts in good standing with a verified email and an account older than 30 days can host up to two ZeroGPU Spaces.
However, on the “Create a new Space” page, Gradio and Docker are marked as Paid, and only Static is available. I cannot select Gradio with ZeroGPU.
I plan to build a non-commercial academic research demo called BeyondRetarget. It converts monocular RGB videos into executable motion trajectories for multiple humanoid robots.
Could you please check my account eligibility and enable ZeroGPU hosting if possible?
Thank you.
Hello,
I would also like to provide more information about the project for which I am requesting ZeroGPU access.
BeyondRetarget is a non-commercial academic research project for direct monocular-video-to-humanoid-robot motion generation. Given a short monocular RGB video, the system directly generates executable motion trajectories for eight different humanoid robots without requiring reconstructed human motion as an inference-time intermediate.
The inference pipeline includes person detection, HMR2 visual feature extraction, a unified multi-robot PyTorch model, contact prediction, contact-aware motion refinement, and MuJoCo visualization.
GPU acceleration would significantly improve the inference speed and make the research demo practically usable by students and researchers. CPU inference is too slow for an interactive online demonstration. The system is currently running temporarily on a university RTX 3090 server, but this server cannot provide stable long-term public access.
With ZeroGPU, we would be able to provide a free and publicly accessible academic demonstration. We will limit uploaded video duration and process only one task concurrently to control GPU usage.
Thank you for considering this academic project for ZeroGPU hosting access.
