Everyone who follows an account, with profile links, account type and pro status.

About this endpoint
GET /v1/hugging-face/accounts/{name}/followers returns a page of accounts and a page block. Each entry has username, uid, displayName, avatarUrl, url, type, isPro, isStaff and followerCount when present.
limit accepts 10 to 1000 and defaults to 100. cursor takes page.nextCursor from the previous response. Users and organizations both work, because the endpoint picks the right route from the account type.
Hugging Face Followers API FAQ
Does this work for an organization?
Yes. Pass the organization name; the endpoint resolves whether the name is a user or an organization.
Why is there a minimum limit of 10?
The platform refuses smaller follower pages, so they are refused with a 400.
How do I page through a large follower list?
Send page.nextCursor as cursor while page.hasMore is true, keeping the same name and limit.
How much does a follower page cost?
Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth. Each paginated page is a separate billed request.
