# Introduction

[ModelScope]( https://www.modelscope.cn) is built upon the notion of “Model-as-a-Service” (MaaS). It seeks to bring together most advanced machine learning models from the AI community, and streamlines the process of leveraging AI models in real-world applications. We are joining hands with HuggingFace to make AI more accessible for everyone.

To use models in ModelScope, you can `pip install modelscope` or refer to our github repo [https://github.com/modelscope/modelscope](https://github.com/modelscope/modelscope)

# Models and Online Accessibility

Hundreds of models are made publicly available on [ModelScope]( https://www.modelscope.cn)  (700+ and counting), covering the latest development in areas such as NLP, CV, Audio, Multi-modality, and AI for Science, etc. Many of these models represent the SOTA in their specific fields, and made their open-sourced debut on ModelScope. Users can visit ModelScope([modelscope.cn](http://www.modelscope.cn)) and experience first-hand how these models perform via online experience, with just a few clicks. Immediate developer-experience is also possible through the ModelScope Notebook, which is backed by ready-to-use CPU/GPU development environment in the cloud - only one click away on [ModelScope](https://www.modelscope.cn).

  **Note:** Most models on ModelScope are public and can be downloaded without account registration on ([ModelScope website](www.modelscope.cn)), please refer to instructions for [model download](https://modelscope.cn/docs/%E6%A8%A1%E5%9E%8B%E7%9A%84%E4%B8%8B%E8%BD%BD), for dowloading models with api provided by modelscope library or git.
