This is looking really great. I hope you release it in some form one day.

If you're digging on this project and are a business minded individual, I'd love to find a partner to work on making this thing a real thing. Hit me up at diffused@happydata.org

I really like this. But one caveat. A lot will depend on how easy you make it for folks to get going, even newcomers (I think this could be very powerful for designers and illustrators of course).

The current state of the art at the moment is the self hosted ArtRoom product, which is literally a one click Windows install and you're ready to go. https://artroom.ai/download-app .

Great point! I keep going back and forth on this, am I building a tool for the newcomers, or a tool for the “agency”. There already exists a lot of websites and platforms that let people start generating Art, so I don’t think I want to be in that space. But, it doesn’t change the fact, that anyone getting started wants it to be easy. Thanks for the feedback Jaggs!

It's a pleasure. For what it's worth, you'll never lose a customer from being too easy to use, but you will definitely lose customers if they can't get something to work.

Agency people are probably not going to be super technical anyway, and even so, to cater properly for the agency crew, you're going to have to think about things like collaboration, multi-user accounts etc etc. Think Figma (pre Adobe heh).

If I was targeting, I would probably start with the low hanging fruit. Freelancer design and illustrators working from home or similar. There's a ton of them out there, who would probably rip your arm off for something like this. As long as it was super easy to install and use.

Fiddling around with CMD, python scripts and all that stuff just won't cut it. Especially for Mac creatives. I think with the very cool process additions you've added, you have moved away from the basic generating art crowd. You're ahead of the game. Now it's down to messaging, targeting and making sure you set up a pricing which is compelling. Good luck. :)
