stability-ai/stable-diffusion-v3-medium

Stable Diffusion V3 Medium by Stability AI - generate stunning images from text prompts with state-of-the-art AI. Supports multiple aspect ratios, styles, and high-resolution output for creative and commercial use.

Input
The prompt to generate an image from.
The aspect ratio of the generated image. Allowed values: 21:9, 16:9, 3:2, 4:3, 5:4, 1:1, 4:5, 3:4, 2:3, 9:16.
020
The CFG (Classifier Free Guidance) scale is a measure of how close you want the model to stick to your prompt when looking for a related image to show you. Range: 0 to 20.
150
The number of inference steps to perform. Range: 1 to 50.
The same seed and the same prompt given to the same version of Stable Diffusion will output the same image every time.
If set to true, prompt will be upsampled with more details.

API README

Stable Diffusion V3

Stable Diffusion V3 occupies a clearly bounded position in a image production pipeline under the route stability-ai/stable-diffusion-v3-medium. It is best evaluated as a named workflow endpoint rather than as a generic substitute for neighboring versions: planners can assign the route to a specific brief, record the chosen revision, and keep approval history tied to one predictable integration surface from intake through delivery.

A practical rollout of Stable Diffusion V3 should begin with source-readiness checks, ownership of the submitted material, an agreed budget, and a written definition of the final stable diffusion v3 medium deliverable. Before automation is enabled, the acceptance pass should verify that the returned asset opens correctly, fits the intended downstream toolchain, satisfies the project’s review criteria, and can be reproduced from the stored request and route identity stability-ai/stable-diffusion-v3-medium.
