ComfyUI, on your own GPU or a rented one

Qwen-Image-Edit-Rapid-AIO is a community merge of Alibaba’s Qwen-Image-Edit, posted on Hugging Face by a user called Phr00t. Qwen-Image-Edit came out in August 2025 as an open model that changes a picture from a plain instruction, like “make her dress red” or “put her on a beach”. Version 2509 added multi-image input, and version 2511 got better at keeping the same person looking the same.

AIO means all-in-one. Normally you load four parts separately: the image model, a Lightning LoRA that cuts generation down to 4 steps, the VAE and the Qwen2.5-VL text encoder. Rapid AIO bakes all four into a single FP8 checkpoint, so one Load Checkpoint node in ComfyUI is enough.

What you can do with it:

• Edit an image by typing what you want changed.
• Combine up to 4 reference images, using the author’s fixed text-encode node.
• Make images from text alone: leave the image inputs empty and it works as a normal text-to-image model.

Why so many people use it: 4 steps is fast, there’s an NSFW build, and you skip wiring up four separate files. The repo has more than 2,500 likes and hundreds of discussion threads. One r/StableDiffusion user put it bluntly: the NSFW version is “hundred times better than original for NSFW”.

Up to v4, one file tried to do both, and the author wasn’t happy with the results. Since v5, every release comes as two files in the same version folder:

One exception: v15 only shipped an SFW file. If you want NSFW, skip it.

There are 23 numbered releases, but you don’t need to read the whole changelog. The author already named two favorites on the model card:

Users mostly agree. In the v19 vs v23 thread, several people said they went back to v19 because faces hold up better and the lighting looks more natural. One user also ran out of memory with v23 on an RTX 5070 Ti.

Our advice: start with v19. Switch to v23 only if the model keeps ignoring what you asked for.

Version history, one line each

1. v1–v4SFW and NSFW in a single file, built on 2509. The author called the results subpar.
2. v5First release split into separate SFW and NSFW files.
3. v7–v14More LoRAs merged in (MeiTu, Edit-R1, SNOFS, InSubject). v8 cut down grid artifacts.
4. v15Moved to the Qwen-Image-Edit-2511 base. SFW only, no NSFW file.
5. v16Sex-tacular LoRA added to the NSFW build.
6. v172509 and 2511 blended together.
7. v18Handles many input images better.
8. v19Lightning Edit 2511 accelerator plus GNASS.
   Author’s pick for consistent edits
9. v20Back to pure 2511; BestFaceSwap added.
10. v21–v22Realism LoRAs swapped in and out (anything2real, JibMix Skin, qwen-skin-edit).
11. v23Final release so far; JibMix removed.
    Author’s pick for prompt adherence

Recommended samplers

From the author’s notes. Every version runs at 4 steps and CFG 1.

The author doesn’t list hardware requirements, so here’s what people have actually reported:

• The full file is 28.4 GB. In one RunPod test, it froze while loading on a 24 GB RTX 4090. On a 32 GB RTX 5090 it ran fine and made an image in a few seconds.
• Less VRAM can work if you have lots of system RAM. Users report 8 GB of VRAM plus 64 GB of RAM running it, because ComfyUI moves what doesn’t fit into RAM. It’s a lot slower.
• Keep at least 40 GB of free disk space.

GGUF sizes vs. the full file

VRAM suggestions are rules of thumb from user reports, not official numbers.

The basic workflow for the full checkpoint takes five steps:

1. 1

   Download the checkpoint

   Get the SFW or NSFW .safetensors file (about 28.4 GB) for the version you want from the Phr00t/Qwen-Image-Edit-Rapid-AIO repo on Hugging Face.

2. 2

   Put it in the checkpoints folder

   Move the file into ComfyUI/models/checkpoints and restart ComfyUI.

3. 3

   Load it with Load Checkpoint

   One Load Checkpoint node gives you MODEL, CLIP and VAE. There is no separate VAE or text encoder to load.

4. 4

   Write the edit in TextEncodeQwenImageEditPlus

   Type your instruction and connect up to 4 input images. Use the author’s fixed version of this node (nodes_qwen.v2.py in the repo’s fixed-textencode-node folder) and feed it the same latent you sample from, so the picture doesn’t zoom or crop.

5. 5

   Sample at 4 steps, CFG 1

   Use the sampler for your version (euler_ancestral / beta works for v19–v23). Leave the image inputs empty to use it as text-to-image.

Using the Phil2Sat GGUF version

The files at Phil2Sat/Qwen-Image-Edit-Rapid-AIO-GGUF are much smaller, but they are not all-in-one. Only the image model is inside, so you also need:

• The ComfyUI-GGUF custom nodes, to load .gguf files.
• A VAE, for example pig_qwen_image_vae_fp32-f16.gguf.
• A Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct text encoder in GGUF (the abliterated version is a common pick) with its mmproj file in the same folder.

Forget the mmproj file and ComfyUI stops with mat1 and mat2 shapes cannot be multiplied. Another uploader, Novice25, has also posted GGUF versions if you can’t find the size you want.

Sometimes, but never reliably.

The most popular free v23 NSFW demo on Hugging Face Spaces had two days of very long queues at the end of July 2026, then went 404. Someone asked about it on the Hugging Face forum; the first reply was “Seems dead”. People were still asking in September.

Why free Spaces keep disappearing

• Free GPU time (ZeroGPU) has limits. Once a Space gets popular, the queue grows and it runs out.
• Owners can delete a Space or make it private at any time.
• Hugging Face disables Spaces that break its content policy. Even a v23 demo with 134 likes was taken down.

Other ways to run it online

Checked in September 2026. These services change often.

If what you want is NSFW images, not edits to one specific photo, you don’t need a 28 GB model. The generator at the top of this page runs in your browser. Here’s an honest comparison:

How to use it

1. Step 1

   Describe the image

   Write who, what they’re wearing, the pose and the setting. Plain sentences work.

2. Step 2

   Pick a style

   Realistic Girl, Visionary Girl or Cartoon Anime.

3. Step 3

   Generate

   Free runs make one 2:3 image. Like it? Send it to image-to-video and animate it.
