| Hardware | Uses the hosted Space GPU | Uses your compatible local or rented GPU |
| Control | Focused controls exposed by the hosted app | Full graph, pinned weights, seeds, LoRA stacking, and batch workflows |
| Maintenance | Space owner maintains the environment | You maintain Python, nodes, models, and updates |
| Availability | Shared queue and uptime can vary | Available whenever your configured machine is ready |
| Best for | First tests, prompt validation, and occasional edits | Repeatable production, automation, and advanced tuning |
Workflow
