SeaArt.ai is often described as the “Swiss Army Knife” of AI art. It is a powerful, all-in-one platform that aggregates the best open-source models (like Stable Diffusion and Flux) into a user-friendly web interface.

If Civitai is the “library” where you download models, SeaArt is the “studio” where you use them without needing a powerful $2,000 computer.

1. Core Purpose: The “All-in-One” Studio

SeaArt distinguishes itself by packing almost every possible AI feature into one website. It isn’t just for making pictures; it’s for complex workflows.

• Model Aggregator: It hosts over 200,000 models (Checkpoints and LoRAs) directly from Civitai and other sources. You don’t need to download anything; you just click “Use” on the model you like.

   

• Face Swap & Video: Unlike Midjourney, SeaArt has built-in tools to swap faces in photos/videos or turn a static image into a short animation.

   

• AI Chat (Cyberpub): It features a “Character Chat” mode where you can roleplay with AI personalities generated by the community.

   

2. The AI Models

SeaArt doesn’t rely on just one brain; it lets you choose from many.

• Flux (Newest): It supports the latest “Flux” models, which are currently rivaling Midjourney in realism and text adherence.

• Stable Diffusion (SDXL & 1.5): The backbone of the site. You can use specific versions tuned for anime, photorealism, or oil painting.

• Pony/Illustrious: It fully supports these specialized models, which are famous in the anime community for following difficult prompts extremely well.

   

3. Key Features

• Swift AI Tools: A collection of one-click utilities for specific tasks:

   

  • Remove Background: Instantly creates transparent PNGs.

  • HD Upscaler: Increases the resolution of grainy images up to 4K.

  • Sketch-to-Image: You draw a stick figure, and it turns it into a masterpiece.

     

• ComfyUI Integration: For advanced users, SeaArt allows you to use “ComfyUI” workflows (a complex node-based system) directly in the browser. This offers the highest level of control possible in AI art today.

   

• LoRA Mixing: You can stack multiple LoRAs. For example, you can load a “Ghibli Style” LoRA and a “Cyberpunk” LoRA at the same time to mix the styles.

4. Pricing & The “Stamina” System

SeaArt uses a dual-currency system that is generally very generous to free users.

• Stamina (Free Daily Energy):

   

  • You get roughly 150–200 Stamina per day (resets every 24 hours).

     

  • Generating a standard image might cost 2–4 stamina.

  • This allows you to create 40–60 free images every single day.

• Credits (Paid):

  • If you buy credits, they do not expire. These are required for heavy tasks like training your own LoRA model or generating long videos.

• VIP Plans: Starting around $5/month, these give you faster generation speeds and private mode (hiding your images from the public feed).
