What is ComfyUI?
Node-based app for building image, video, audio and 3D generation pipelines, locally or in the cloud.
Who is ComfyUI best for?
ComfyUI is best for AI artists and studios who want step-by-step control over image and video model pipelines.
Repeatable image and video pipelines
Every model, setting and step sits on a node canvas you can inspect, change and share as a workflow.
Running open models locally
The desktop app is free and GPL-licensed, so models, LoRAs and custom nodes run on your own GPU.
Creators without a big GPU
Comfy Cloud runs the same workflows in the browser on 96GB GPUs, with 900+ models pre-installed.
Shipping a workflow as an API
Comfy API deploys a workflow as a production endpoint billed by the GPU second.
How much does ComfyUI cost?
ComfyUI is free and open source to run on your own GPU; Comfy Cloud, the hosted version, costs $20 a month for Standard, $35 for Creator and $100 for Pro.
