HN discussionBoogu-Image has the Apache 2.0 License [1] (good coherence, but outputs can look synthetic). And Krea 2 has a community license [2] that is fairly permissive - I think commercial usage is allowed under $1 million. Boogu-Image scored 6/15 and Krea 2 scored 7/15 on my GenAI Showdown benchmark [3] - only Ideogram4 eclipses them in terms of local models, but its got a far more restrictive license and the JSON structured…

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2024)”Yup... We have the following: https://www.krea.ai/pricing Though we wanted to keep this technical blogpost free from marketing fluff, but maybe we over-did it. However, sometimes it's hard to give an exact price per image, as it depends on resolution, number of steps, whether a LoRA is being used or not, etc.
