From the project README

An excerpt from the repository, fetched Nov 13, 2026.

Read the project’s introduction
Pre-trained TensorFlow.js models This repository hosts a set of pre-trained models that have been ported to TensorFlow.js. The models are hosted on NPM and unpkg so they can be used in any project out of the box. They can be used directly or used in a transfer learning setting with TensorFlow.js. To find out about APIs for models, look at the README in each of the respective directories. In general, we try to hide tensors so the API can be used by non-machine learning experts. For those interested in contributing a model, please file a GitHub issue on tfjs to gauge interest. We are trying to add models that complement the existing set of models and can be used as building blocks in other apps. Models Type Model Demo Details Install Images MobileNet live Classify images with labels from the ImageNet database. npm i @tensorflow-models/mobilenet source Hand live Real-time hand pose detection in the browser using TensorFlow.js. npm i @tensorflow-models/hand-pose-detection source Pose live An API for real-time human pose detection in the browser. npm i @tensorflow-models/pose-detection source Coco SSD Object detection model that aims to localize and identify multiple objects in a single image. Based on the TensorFlow object detection API. npm i @tensorflow-models/coco-ssd source DeepLab v3 Semantic segmentation npm i @tensorflow-models/deeplab source Face Landmark Detection live Real-time 3D facial landmarks detection to infer the approximate surface geometry of a human face npm i @tensorflow-models/face-landmarks-detection source Audio Speech Commands live Classify 1 second audio snippets from the speech commands dataset. npm i @tensorflow-models/speech-commands source Text Universal Sentence Encoder Encode text into a 512-dimensional embedding to be used as inputs to natural language processing tasks such as sentiment classification and textual similarity. npm i @tensorflow-models/universal-sentence-encoder source Text Toxicity live Score the perceived impact a comment might have on a conversation, from "Very toxic" to "Very healthy". npm i @tensorflow-models/toxicity source Depth Estimation Portrait Depth live Estimate per-pixel depth (the distance to the camera center) for a single portrait image, which can be further used for creative applications such as 3D photo and relighting. npm i @tensorflow-models/depth-estimation source General Utilities KNN Classifier This package provides a utility for creating a classifier using the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm. Can be used for transfer learning. npm i @tensorflow-models/knn-classifier source Development You can run the unit tests for any of the models by running the following inside a directory: yarn test New models should have a test NPM script (see this package.json and run_tests.ts helper for reference). To run all of the tests, you can run the following command from the root of this repo: yarn presubmit

For anyone wondering it is Electron app, that packs some heavy web app assets(300mb + 150mb runtime), but still loads rest of web app from https://client.getposturehealth.co, and then it uses google pretrained posenet tensorflowjs model[0][1]. (loads it from https://storage.googleapis.com/tfjs-models/savedmodel/posene...). In perfect world one would made it offline, release it at fixed price and be done with it, in our imperfect world it is turned in infinite cash-cow that requires connectivity and bazillion metrics.
