InvokeAI is an implementation of Stable Diffusion, the open source text-to-image and image-to-image generator. It provides a streamlined process with various new features and options to aid the image generation process. It runs on Windows, Mac and Linux machines, and runs on GPU cards with as little as 4 GB of RAM.

Other Installation Guides
:fontawesome-solid-computer: Hardware Requirements
:octicons-cpu-24: System
You wil need one of the following:
- :simple-nvidia: An NVIDIA-based graphics card with 4 GB or more VRAM memory.
- :simple-amd: An AMD-based graphics card with 4 GB or more VRAM memory (Linux only)
- :fontawesome-brands-apple: An Apple computer with an M1 chip.
We do not recommend the following video cards due to issues with their running in half-precision mode and having insufficient VRAM to render 512x512 images in full-precision mode:
- NVIDIA 10xx series cards such as the 1080ti
- GTX 1650 series cards
- GTX 1660 series cards
:fontawesome-solid-memory: Memory and Disk
- At least 12 GB Main Memory RAM.
- At least 18 GB of free disk space for the machine learning model, Python, and all its dependencies.

InvokeAI Configuration
:octicons-log-16: Important Changes Since Version 2.3
Nodes
Behind the scenes, InvokeAI has been completely rewritten to support "nodes," small unitary operations that can be combined into graphs to form arbitrary workflows. For example, there is a prompt node that processes the prompt string and feeds it to a text2latent node that generates a latent image. The latents are then fed to a latent2image node that translates the latent image into a PNG.
The WebGUI has a node editor that allows you to graphically design and execute custom node graphs. The ability to save and load graphs is still a work in progress, but coming soon.
Command-Line Interface Retired
The original "invokeai" command-line interface has been retired. The
invokeai
command will now launch a new command-line client that can
be used by developers to create and test nodes. It is not intended to
be used for routine image generation or manipulation.
To launch the Web GUI from the command-line, use the command
invokeai-web
rather than the traditional invokeai --web
.
ControlNet
This version of InvokeAI features ControlNet, a system that allows you to achieve exact poses for human and animal figures by providing a model to follow. Full details are found in ControlNet
New Schedulers
The list of schedulers has been completely revamped and brought up to date:
Short Name | Scheduler | Notes |
