All-in-one browser-based AI generation โ image, video & characters
What is Mage?
Mage (mage.space) is a browser-based, all-in-one AI generation platform with no install or setup. It runs a wide model lineup including Flux, Qwen, and its own fine-tuned models, alongside text-to-video and a consistent-character system, so you get more than image generation in one place. For people leaving self-hosted Stable Diffusion, it keeps the control they expect โ LoRAs, ControlNet, inpainting โ while adding unlimited generation, video, and commercial-use rights without managing a GPU.
Built by Mage, launched in 2022.
