AI Horde
An open-source community platform where volunteers share their computers' computing power so anyone can generate images and text for free.
About AI Horde
AI Horde is a free, community-run open-source platform. Volunteers connect their own computers to a shared network, and anyone can use it to generate images and text for free. The images shown on the official website were all generated by this network, and users can view the corresponding prompts or browse the gallery. It offers a web-based generation interface, and developers can build their own tools and graphical frontends through the open REST API; users with spare computing power can also run a worker or donate to contribute and earn kudos. The project is run by Haidra, a non-profit organization operated by volunteers, funded by public donations as well as a grant from NLnet / NGI0 Core.
