Draw Things

What Draw Things is

Draw Things is an AI image-generation app that can create images from text prompts and run downloaded models locally, including offline. Its tools include an infinite canvas, image styling, apparel prototyping, and on-device LoRA training. The app can also edit images, use reference images, and create video clips from images. The Free Edition includes local compute, model downloads, an infinite canvas, and local LoRA training; community accounts can use free cloud compute. Draw Things+ costs $8.99 per month and adds higher cloud compute limits, use of personal LoRAs with Cloud Compute, on-demand compute boosts, and Privacy Pass. Enterprise plans cover organizational deployment, on-premise inference hosting, and local or cloud integration into customer apps. The maker says most creations and data can be stored locally under user control. Cloud Compute requires sign-in, and uploaded LoRAs are stored on third-party cloud servers with encryption in transit and at rest. The privacy policy says the app does not use third-party analytics or advertising frameworks for tracking. Draw Things is listed for iOS, macOS, and API access.
