Enterprise-grade AI image generation in 2 seconds is here: Krea 2 Raw and Turbo available as open weights under custom license
AI-generated images often lack originality, leading to a desire for more distinct visuals. Krea, an AI creative tools startup, aims to address this with its new model, Krea 2, released in two versions: Krea 2 Raw and Krea 2 Turbo. These models are available for public download and offer greater visual variety and prompt accuracy compared to typical AI generators. Users can also customize outputs more extensively than with other models. Krea 2 Turbo boasts impressive generation speeds, producing images in just two seconds. The licensing for Krea 2 requires enterprises with over 50 seats to pay for commercial use and mandates technical safeguards against illegal content. Krea 2 Raw serves as a blank canvas for custom training, absorbing new styles with high fidelity. Krea 2 Turbo, on the other hand, is a distilled, faster version optimized for generating high-resolution images quickly. This dual approach allows creators to train on Raw and generate with Turbo, creating a powerful workflow. The models utilize a 12 billion parameter Diffusion Transformer architecture with efficiency optimizations. Their training data is a hybrid of public, licensed, and curated synthetic datasets, with a strict policy against using synthetic data in pretraining.
