Open source at Replicate

A collection of open-source projects and tools created and maintained by the Replicate team.

Table of contents

Open-source is a big deal at Replicate.

One of our goals as a team has always been to help unlock the power of machine learning by building flexible and well-designed open-source tools. We’re motivated by the experimentation and innovation that happens when ideas can grow beyond the confines of academic papers and take life as reproducible, open-source code.

This page highlights some of the open-source projects and tools we maintain. For the full list, see the @replicate organization on GitHub.

API client libraries

SDKs for working with Replicate’s HTTP API.

replicate/replicate-javascript - Node.js client for the Replicate API with ESM and CommonJS support. Works on multiple runtimes like Node.js, Bun, and Deno, and serverless platforms like CloudFlare Workers, Vercel functions, and AWS Lambda.

replicate/replicate-python - Python client for the Replicate API that lets you run models from your Python code, Jupyter notebooks, and Google Colab.

replicate/replicate-go - Go client. It lets you run models from your Golang code, and everything else you can do with Replicate's HTTP API.

replicate/replicate-swift - Swift client. Use it to build apps for iOS, macOS, visionOS, tvOS, and watchOS.

Building models

The tools we use to define, package, and continuously deploy models on Replicate.

replicate/cog - Containers for machine learning. Cog provides a Go CLI and Python API for defining and packaging machine learning models in standard, production-ready Docker containers. Every model you run on Replicate is packaged with Cog.

replicate/cog-safe-push - Safely push new versions of your Cog model by making sure it works and is backwards-compatible with previous versions.

replicate/setup-cog - A GitHub Action for Cog so you can run, test, and push models as part of your CI/CD pipeline.

andreasjansson/autocog - Simplify the process of creating Cog models by using GPT-4 to generate predict.py and cog.yaml automatically.

replicate/pget - High-performance concurrent file downloader built in Go. Useful for parallelized downloads of huge weights files.

replicate/cli - The official command-line interface for Replicate.

Running models

Open-source tools created and maintained by Replicate staff.

zeke/all-the-public-replicate-models - A daily-updated npm package containing metadata for all public Replicate models.

ai-prompts/prompt-lists - Lists to generate prompts.

fofr/prompter.fofr.ai - An app for generating text prompts.

fofr/replicate-predict - A JavaScript wrapper to run and save batches of API calls on Replicate.

pwntus/replicate-webhook-proxy - Receive Replicate webhook events through a websocket connection, right in your browser or Node.js code.

zeke/aimg - Generate AI images with Replicate and save them to disk.
