DiffusionBee

Stable Diffusion App for AI Art

About DiffusionBee

DiffusionBee is a desktop application that runs Stable Diffusion locally, mainly on Intel and Apple silicon Macs, through a one-click installer and a graphical interface. It supports text-to-image, image-to-image, inpainting, outpainting, upscaling, ControlNet, LoRA, custom model downloads, generation history, and training models on personal images. Because generation happens entirely on the user's computer, prompts, models, and finished images stay on the device rather than being sent to a cloud service.
