Fooocus is an open source, offline image generation software built on Gradio and powered by Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL). Designed for simplicity, it minimizes manual tweaking, users focus on prompts while the system handles the rest. Fooocus includes an offline GPT-2-based prompt enhancement engine and sampling improvements, ensuring high-quality outputs from both short and long prompts. It supports features like inpainting, outpainting, upscaling, and image prompting, utilizing its own algorithms for superior results compared to standard SDXL methods. The software offers various presets, including anime and realistic modes, and allows for advanced customization through an intuitive interface. Installation is straightforward, with minimal clicks required, and it runs on systems with at least 4GB of NVIDIA GPU memory. Fooocus is in a state of limited long-term support, focusing on bug fixes, with no current plans to adopt newer model architectures.

FLUX.2 [klein] is the fastest member of the FLUX.2 family of AI image models, designed to unify text-to-image generation, image editing, and multi-reference composition into a single compact architecture that delivers state-of-the-art visual quality at sub-second inference times on modern GPUs, making it suitable for real-time and latency-critical applications. It supports both generation from prompts and editing existing images with references, combining high diversity and photorealistic outputs with extremely low latency so users can iterate quickly in interactive workflows; distilled versions can produce or edit images in under 0.5 seconds on capable hardware, and even compact 4 B variants run on consumer GPUs with about 8–13 GB of VRAM. The FLUX.2 [klein] family comes in different variants, including distilled and base versions at 9 B and 4 B parameter scales, giving developers options for local deployment, fine-tuning, research, and production integration.
