Model downloads
Preparing a generative model or runtime may fetch large files.
PRIVACY & BOUNDARIES
Local-first means the boundary is explicit
Image Studio keeps model execution, conversations, and works local whenever possible, while downloads, release checks, and external links still use the network.
Are images uploaded by default?
Local model execution and work management happen on this computer without a hosted image-generation API. The website never receives user works.
What stays local
- Conversations, prompts, drafts, jobs, attempts, and the works library
- Formal images, transparent RGBA, companion masks, and preview caches
- Model weights, preparation caches, and local runtimes
- Local settings and device eligibility decisions
When the network is used
Updates and releases
Checking a GitHub Release or opening a download uses GitHub.
External help
Issues, model licenses, and author links take you to another site.
What this website collects
The site loads no advertising, behavioral tracking, or third-party analytics. Theme preference stays in browser storage; GitHub API is used only for public release data.
Deletion and export
In-app deletion handles registered originals, companion masks, and dedicated preview caches. Copies already exported outside the app are unaffected.
License and third-party content
Image Studio code is Apache-2.0. Models, runtimes, fonts, prompts, and other third-party assets may use separate licenses.
Why the site avoids “fully offline”
Local execution and network-based model preparation are separate facts, and the site presents both.
