Frequently asked questions

Can InfiniteYou be used in a commercial project?

No. License: CC-BY-NC 4.0: research only; the FLUX.1-dev base and the InsightFace recognizer are also non-commercial. A commercial product needs a different model or a separate agreement with the rights holder.

What hardware does InfiniteYou need?

At minimum: One GPU with 16–80 GB — mid-size versions. Without a GPU the model is not practical. You can calculate the exact VRAM for your model size and context in the hardware calculator.

Does InfiniteYou support Russian?

Language does not matter for this model: it does not work with text.

Where can I download InfiniteYou and what does it cost?

The InfiniteYou weights are open and free to download. You only pay for the hardware it runs on and for the setup. Source links are at the bottom of this page.
