Adobe Firefly alternatives for image generation
Compare Krita AI Diffusion, InvokeAI and ComfyUI for image generation and editing. Choose direct painting, canvas refinement or reusable node workflows.
Adobe Firefly is a creative AI service for generating and editing images, video and audio. Its image tools connect generation with operations such as filling or expanding a picture, so creators can revise an asset rather than accept the first output. The comparisons here focus on that image workflow within Firefly's wider service.
Krita AI Diffusion places generation inside a painting canvas, with sketches and selections guiding changes. InvokeAI combines canvas editing with a gallery that preserves prompts and settings. ComfyUI makes the generation and editing steps visible as nodes you can reuse. These Adobe Firefly alternatives differ in whether you want to paint directly or build a repeatable processing workflow.
A self-hosted AI image generator with layer-based canvas editing, visual workflows and local Flux and Stable Diffusion models, licensed under Apache 2.0.

A Krita plugin generates and edits images locally through ComfyUI, with selection-based edits, visual guides and optional online generation.

An AI image generator runs offline on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with local LoRA training and optional self-hosted or managed cloud compute.

A self-hosted AI image generation interface supports Stable Diffusion and Flux, with image editing, comparison grids and ComfyUI workflows.
A self-hosted AI image and video generation interface supports Stable Diffusion, image editing, and CPU or GPU execution on Windows, Linux and macOS.

An open source local AI workflow editor generates images, video, audio and 3D on Windows, macOS and Linux, with an offline core and optional cloud services.

An open-source AI image and video studio with local desktop generation on macOS, Windows and Linux, plus support for your own Wan2GP server.

A local AI desktop app runs offline chat, voice conversations and image generation on Linux, with a layered canvas and a self-hosted API.

A Blender add-on generates textures and concept art with Stable Diffusion locally on CUDA or Apple Silicon GPUs, with optional DreamStudio cloud processing.
Dream Textures brings image generation into Blender for concept art and tiling textures. Scene depth guides texture projection onto models, while inpainting and outpainting revise the image assets.
For Adobe Firefly, start with InvokeAI. Other alternatives include Krita AI Diffusion, Draw Things, SwarmUI and SD.Next.
Most are Image Generator Apps; others include Photo Editing and Upscaling.
