## Runs On

What it takes to serve Depth-Anything-V2-Small-hf (25M parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the [SAVRN Index](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus), read Oct 24, 2026.

## SAVRN's Notes on Depth-Anything-V2-Small-hf

Ninety-nine megabytes on disk is the whole download, and at 16-bit the memory needed rounds to 0.1 GB. The cheapest setup our Index lists, one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 per hour on-demand, carries roughly two thousand times that: nobody buys a GPU for this model. Depth Anything V2 Small takes one image and returns a depth map, and it lives in whatever memory is left on a card already doing other work.

Apache 2.0 lets you ship it inside a commercial product, fine-tune it and redistribute the result, provided the notices travel with it and significant changes are stated. Access is open. No context length applies because the input is pixels, not tokens, and no Index host prices it, so it costs only the hardware minutes it borrows. Two arXiv papers describe it, 2406.09414 and 2401.10891, and the checkpoint has not changed since July 5, 2024.

## Model Card

By Depth Aything, published under apache-2.0, revision 5426e4f0f365.

### Depth Anything V2 Small – Transformers Version

Depth Anything V2 is trained from 595K synthetic labeled images and 62M+ real unlabeled images, providing the most capable monocular depth estimation (MDE) model with the following features: - more fine-grained details than Depth Anything V1 - more robust than Depth Anything V1 and SD-based models (e.g., Marigold, Geowizard) - more efficient (10x faster) and more lightweight than SD-based models - impressive fine-tuned performance with our pre-trained models

This model checkpoint is compatible with the transformers library.

## Questions About Depth-Anything-V2-Small-hf

### How much GPU memory does Depth-Anything-V2-Small-hf need?

About 0.1 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (25M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

### What is the cheapest GPU to run Depth-Anything-V2-Small-hf on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

[Intel](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/intel)

Dense Prediction Transformer (DPT) model trained on 1.4 million images for monocular depth estimation. It was introduced in the paper Vision Transformers for Dense Prediction by Ranftl et al. (2021) and first released in this repository. DPT uses the Vision Transformer (ViT) as backbone and adds a neck + head on top for monocular depth estimation. This repository hosts the "hybrid" version of the model as stated in the paper. DPT-Hybrid diverges from DPT by using ViT-hybrid as a backbone and taking some activations from the backbone. The model card has been written in combination by the Hugging Face team and Intel. Here is how to use this model for zero-shot depth estimation on an image…

[LiteRT Community (FKA TFLite)](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/litert-community)

On-device LiteRT / TFLite conversion of Depth Anything 3 — Small (ByteDance-Seed, Apache-2.0) for monocular depth, running fully on the mobile GPU via the LiteRT CompiledModel API (ML Drift delegate). No CPU fallback ops — the whole graph is GPU-compatible. DA3 processes images at their native aspect ratio (upperboundresize, longer side → 896, multiple of 14). Forcing a square 896×896 and letterbox-padding drops the match to corr 0.977 (the black padding leaks into the content through global attention). Converting at the native rectangle restores corr 0.9994 and is also faster (fewer tokens). This checkpoint is built for portrait ~9:16. For another aspect, re-convert at that shape (or your…
