Astria vs Dreamlook (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Astria if

• Fits if you sell fashion, beauty or jewelry and want on-model product images
• Works for developers who would fine-tune on a set of pictures through an API

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need to see prices first, since none were readable
• Watch out: credits must be used within one year of purchase or they expire
• Watch out: a fine-tune and its images are deleted after 1 month unless you delete them sooner
• Watch out: the terms let Astria train and evaluate its models on inputs and outputs, with conditions

Pick Dreamlook if

• Fits if you want a model trained on your own images without owning a GPU
• Works for developers who want training and generation behind an API

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want newer models, as it covers Stable Diffusion 1.5 and SDXL only
• Watch out: costs vary by run and image, from $0.75 per SD1.5 training run up
• Tight if you want a flat price, as there is no subscription
• Watch out: the pricing page was not readable without JavaScript, so the details come from the homepage

Astria

• The pricing page is behind a bot check, so no prices were read and none are shown here.
• The terms say credits must be used within one year of purchase or they expire.
• The documentation says a fine-tune and its images are deleted after 1 month unless you delete them sooner.
• The terms let Astria train and evaluate its models on inputs and outputs, subject to conditions described there.

Dreamlook

• Pricing is pay-as-you-go: training starts at $0.75 per run for SD1.5 and $2.25 per run for SDXL, and generation from $0.01 per image for SD1.5 and $0.02 for SDXL.
• The homepage points to a separate pricing page for full details, which is not readable without JavaScript.
• The models are Stable Diffusion 1.5 and SDXL, not newer image models.

Astria

Product photoshoots and lookbooks

Upload product photos and pick a template to generate on-model images, campaign banners and lookbook pages.

Templates

The site lists ready-made templates for fashion, beauty and jewelry, among others, plus a prompt-based generator.

Headshots

A headshot workflow trains on uploaded photos; the documentation also links an open-source headshots app.

Fine-tuning API

The documentation describes an API to fine-tune models on a set of pictures and generate from them; it uses the same account balance as the web app.

Photoshop, ChatGPT and Claude

The site links a Photoshop plugin, a CLI, MCP and connections to ChatGPT and Claude.

Dreamlook

Full-model fine-tuning

The site says it finetunes whole SDXL models rather than only LoRAs, and offers 30+ base models to train from.

Image generation

Trained models can generate images for SD1.5 and SDXL, with ControlNet pose control, Offset Noise and QR code styles listed among the options.

LoRA extraction

LoRA files can be extracted from a trained model to cut the size of the download.

Training and generation API

An API runs training and generation so an app can call it without managing GPUs.
