Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large
Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large is a text-to-image diffusion transformer with downloadable weights and hosted API access. Its architecture combines three text encoders and query-key normalization.
Model design and access
The official card includes ComfyUI and Diffusers workflows, plus a low-bit loading example. Quantization changes memory use and inference behavior; it is a deployment choice within this release. The model is designed for image creation, including text within images, rather than factual reconstruction of a scene.Stable Diffusion 3.5 Large official model documentation
Stable Image Ultra is a hosted image service using models that include SD 3.5. Its API supports an optional starting image and strength control, and returns approximately one-megapixel images. Ultra is grouped here as a related service, not a separate downloadable checkpoint.Stable Image Ultra API reference
Practical use
Practical guidance. Large is suited to workflows that need control over local generation, adapters or image pipelines. Include the text encoders when assessing memory needs. For layouts with required words, review spelling and placement at full size; a model that can render text still needs checks before publication.
