SDXL-Turbo

Free drafts. Cheap, small, fast enough to iterate on wording.

The free tier, running on CPU rather than a GPU. It draws in the 512 pixel class, so it is for finding the right prompt before spending a GPU on it — not for the final image.

What it is good at

  • Free for every account, no approval, no schedule
  • Backgrounds, textures and flat vector work, where 512 px hurts least
  • Fast enough to try ten wordings before committing

Where it struggles

  • Faces at 512 px — use it to find the prompt, then move up
  • Fine detail and text

Writing prompts for this model

  • Two steps is the sweet spot; one is softer, four is sharper but harsher
  • Draft here, then send the same nine slots to a bigger model

Its own catalog

These looks were written for this model, not shared with the others — the same prompt on a different model tells you which prompt suits which model, not which model is better. Click a look to view it full size or copy the prompt; open it in Studio from there. Every image below is the first of 3 seeds.
