Sogni: AI Image, Video & Music

Why pay for slow text to image generators online when you can get unlimited images for free? Sogni is running great on my Mac M1 mini w/only 8GB memory. I only use 512k models, which generate in around 10 seconds. 1024px and/or SL models work too, but take several minutes per image. 512px is fine for my needs. FEATURE REQUEST: please increase the max batch size from 16 to at least 100...or even 500 for overnight generating. With a different app I can do thousands per day with various batch sizes up to 2000, and queue unlimited batches for unattended background production to review later.

Sogni is the first of its kind, a directly integrated app into your very own iOS device. The terms of the app also state that user privacy is the top priority of the app. Sogni requires a lot of tinkering with but the controls are easy to grasp quickly. The amount of “Dreams” or generations you can do is unlimited which is great for testing. I spent a couple of hours testing the settings and found a few that work. If you’re unsure about what each setting does, there’s a little “?” icon that explains it to you. The one issue I have is with seeds. A seed is basically a preset reference image for the AI to model against. This is different from your guiding image. The idea here is to keep your seed number and tinker with the other settings and prompts. I don’t like that and would rather be able to choose my seed number but I don’t know how many seeds there are and I don’t know what each one looks like. So you have to try a lot of shuffles to find a good seed that matches the style you want to closely generate to.

Let me start by saying I hate paying for apps. I took the plunge with this app and I have not been disappointed at all. Sogni’s developers really care about this product suite. The macOS version is constantly updated with new features (SDXL Turbo being the most recent addition which allows for real-time image generation) and they are extremely helpful in Discord for support. The UI for both iOS and macOS apps is extremely polished and feels/functions like an Apple app. The only thing left Id like to see for the macOS app is batch image generation (more than one image at a time), though I’ve been informed this is being added very soon.
