They're just wrapping and reselling the Astria API? That seems dangerous given the potential for their own customers to abuse the method for deepfakes.

I've been working on Picasa AI[1] for sometime, we use cloud GPUs for building the Stable Diffusion + Dreambooth models. I'm wondering what you folks are using? Any API providers?

Cool idea, although the pricing seems pretty steep to me. Knowing the internet, similar services will likely be available for free or at least cheaper soon.
I don't think that the profile pic/avatar space is going to be very profitable. As you can see from this post, there is quite a bit of competition already. Because this is not that hard to set up, there is nothing stopping someone from charging the cost of production for this, which is essentially what I'm doing (I added in a small amount of overhead as a buffer for non-GPU compute and in case I messed up my math, math is hard). That's why I'm focused on building for other use cases instead (making content creation more accessible).

Also, this should probably be a Show HN instead.
Cheaper services will no doubt pop up next week

Typo: Is it one time payment? Yes, absolutely. No stupid subscriptinos.
