About
Stability AI develops the Stable Diffusion family of open-source image generation models, which can be run locally, accessed via the DreamStudio web interface, or called through an API. Because the weights are publicly available, developers can fine-tune the model, build pipelines with ControlNet or LoRA, and run it entirely offline. DreamStudio offers a credit-based service for users who prefer not to set up a local environment. The model supports text-to-image, image-to-image, and inpainting workflows.
Features
- Text-to-image and image-to-image generation
- Inpainting and outpainting
- ControlNet and LoRA support in local deployments
- REST API via Stability AI platform
- DreamStudio web interface with credit system
Best for
- Developers who want to fine-tune or build custom image pipelines
- Users who need to run generation offline or on their own hardware
- Researchers exploring generative models
