AI developers, researchers, and creative technologists who need a powerful, open source text-to-image generation model that delivers high-quality, efficient image synthesis and editing capabilities
About Z-Image
Z-Image is an open source image generation foundation model family developed by Alibaba’s Tongyi-MAI team that uses a Scalable Single-Stream Diffusion Transformer architecture to generate photorealistic and creative images from text prompts with only 6 billion parameters, making it more efficient than many larger models while still delivering competitive quality and instruction following. It includes multiple variants; Z-Image-Turbo, a distilled version optimized for ultra-fast inference with as few as eight function evaluations and sub-second generation on appropriate GPUs; Z-Image, the full foundation model suited for high-fidelity creative generation and fine-tuning; Z-Image-Omni-Base, a versatile base checkpoint for community-driven development; and Z-Image-Edit, tuned for image-to-image editing tasks with strong instruction adherence.
