Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image

Z-Image is the foundation model of the ⚡️- Image family, engineered for good quality, robust generative diversity, broad stylistic coverage, and precise prompt adherence. While Z-Image-Turbo is built for speed, Z-Image is a full-capacity, undistilled transformer designed to be the backbone for creators, researchers, and developers who require the highest level of creative freedom.

🌟 Key Features

• Undistilled Foundation: As a non-distilled base model, Z-Image preserves the complete training signal. It supports full Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG), providing the precision required for complex prompt engineering and professional workflows.
• Aesthetic Versatility: Z-Image masters a vast spectrum of visual languages—from hyper-realistic photography and cinematic digital art to intricate anime and stylized illustrations. It is the ideal engine for scenarios requiring rich, multi-dimensional expression.
• Enhanced Output Diversity: Built for exploration, Z-Image delivers significantly higher variability in composition, facial identity, and lighting across different seeds, ensuring that multi-person scenes remain distinct and dynamic.
• Built for Development: The ideal starting point for the community. Its non-distilled nature makes it a good base for LoRA training, structural conditioning (ControlNet) and semantic conditioning.
• Robust Negative Control: Responds with high fidelity to negative prompting, allowing users to reliably suppress artifacts and adjust compositions.
