Frequently Asked Questions

Q.Can I use my specific model version?

A.Yes, for any model in the Stable Diffusion ecosystem. However, it’d be useful to know the exact model version and to double-check with tech team if it’s supported out-of-the-box as there are many versions in the market. Additionally, for ControlNets - it’s important to clarify the specific ControlNets you want to use. We support the most popular out-of-the-box (e.g. canny, depth, posing) and we can quickly add support for others - but it’s helpful to verify with us.

Q.Is there any reduction in quality that happens when we accelerate performance?

A.No, quality is completely unaffected.

Q.How do we obtain our performance improvements?

A.Through a combination of hardware and software optimizations. Part of it is the fact that we run our custom made hardware infrastructure, with our own design of GPU board. But we also accelerate specific parts of Stable Diffusion. All these optimizations however are compatible with any SD version - there are no limitations to models or quality from our performance gains.

Q.Will my images look like they do now with another provider?

A.We should be able to achieve the same result because we can configure the setup in the same way - due to the high configuration flexibility we have. However, it’s important to know the precise parameters to achieve the same result. We can also test and iterate over the process, during integration - to ensure the results match as closely as possible.

Q.Is it possible to generate images in any resolution?

A.We have pre-defined resolutions but we can add any resolution to suit your needs.
