Stable Diffusion is an open-source AI image generation model from Stability AI.
Stable Diffusion is powerful and technically free, but most small business owners will struggle with the setup and prompt engineering required. If you have a developer or designer who can work with it, the cost savings are significant. For everyone else, Canva's AI features or Midjourney are far more accessible.
Generate images from text descriptions using AI — product shots, marketing visuals, social graphics
Free to run locally on your own hardware with the open-source model
API available for businesses that do not want to manage infrastructure
Edit existing images: remove backgrounds, replace objects, upscale resolution
Multiple model sizes balance quality vs speed for different use cases
