LoRA Dataset Studio: open-source, self-hosted app covering the full LoRA pipeline in one tab
Ill-Ant-9489 · reddit · 2026-08-20
A developer released LoRA Dataset Studio — free, open source, self-hosted, no accounts or telemetry. It doesn't compete with ai-toolkit; it orchestrates it: ai-toolkit trains, this handles everything before, around and after the run, all in one browser tab:
- Image sourcing: 5 generation engines (Nano Banana Pro, gpt-image-2, OpenRouter, local Klein/Krea 2 via ComfyUI) with per-image pricing shown; or scrape Reddit/Pexels/galleries, or drop a folder in
- Triage: Image Bank reads thousands of images in place, measuring blur, noise, near-duplicates, face clusters, medium, aesthetic and maturity scores — filter by measurements, not eyes
- Curate & caption: crop/mirror/rotate, InsightFace similarity, captions via JoyCaption or local Ollama in prose or booru form, with a Caption Lab and external .txt round-trip
- Watermark cleanup: detect, then crop or inpaint with LaMa/Klein, with .orig backups throughout
- Train: local ai-toolkit with family presets (Z-Image, FLUX.1/FLUX.2 Klein, SDXL, Anima), or rent a vast.ai pod showing GPU, hourly price and estimated total upfront; full-model Krea 2 training and LoRA merging included
- Pick the winner: Test Studio runs fixed-seed checkpoint × strength grids, multi-LoRA stacks, Wilson ranking; LoRA Canvas boards every run
A Beta video lane cuts clips at exact frame counts for Wan/LTX/MiniMax. Honest limits: local generation needs ComfyUI, API engines need your own keys, and only Wan 2.2 14B has a finished video run.
