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

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

Pick RunDiffusion if

• Fits if you want ComfyUI or Auto1111 without owning a graphics card
• Works for designers who want Photoshop or Rhino plugins

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you stay free: 100 tokens a day and files gone after 72 hours
• Watch out: premium image, video and editing tools aren't on the free plan
• Watch out: API mode and persistent extensions start at Creators Club + Runnit Pro, $41.79 on yearly billing
• Skip it if you want a fixed bill, as tokens run out faster on larger servers

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.

RunDiffusion

• Usage is metered in tokens, so how far a plan goes depends on the tools and server sizes used.
• Premium image, video and editing tools are not part of the Free plan.
• Persistent extensions, API mode and the $10 reward balance need Creators Club + Runnit Pro or higher.
• Free-plan files are kept for 72 hours.

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.

RunDiffusion

Hosted open-source apps

ComfyUI, Auto1111 and similar apps run on the vendor's cloud servers, so no local GPU is needed; they are included even on the free plan.

Premium image, video and editing tools

Paid plans add premium tools, with the homepage naming models such as Z-Image, Flux 2, Nano Banana 2, LTX-2 and Seedream 5.0.

Runnit Boards

Boards are canvases that hold tools and results; the number of boards and tools per board depends on the plan.

LoRA model training

Paid plans include LoRA training; downloading the trained models starts on the Pro plan.

Design-software plugins

Plugins connect RunDiffusion to Photoshop, Miro, Revit, Rhino and NVIDIA Omniverse.

Team and enterprise controls

Team workspaces, usage analytics, budgeting, model access and spend limits, and SSO are described on the enterprise pages.
