Size ladder
The WebGPU download spans 84.3x here: 11.3 MB (MODNet) to 948.7 MB (SigLIP2 Base Patch16-224).
5 of 12 models download a smaller build over WebAssembly than WebGPU: the CPU-fallback quant compresses tighter than the GPU pick there.
7 of 12 models here fit under 100 MB over WebGPU.
Bytes-per-million-params ranges 3.9x within this group: 0.66 MB/M (DINOv3 ViT-S/16) to 2.53 MB/M (SigLIP2 Base Patch16-224).

FAQ
Do all vision models here use the same WebGPU quant?
No. 7 use q4f16, 4 use fp16, 1 use q4. q4f16 is the most common pick.
What would it cost to download every vision model here?
1.87 GB total over WebGPU across all 12 models, if you tried every one back to back. Most projects only need the single model that fits the job, not the whole set.
