Krea 2 Turbo

Krea 2 Turbo is the open-weights, distilled checkpoint of Krea 2 - Krea AI's first foundation image model, trained from scratch with a focus on how an image feels rather than just what it contains. Turbo is an 8-step build distilled from Krea 2 RAW and optimized for fast, high-quality inference at high resolution.

Originally released by Krea AI on Hugging Face. All credit for the model goes to the Krea team and the contributors listed below. Civitai is hosting a mirror so creators can generate with it on-site - please head to the original repo for weights, the technical report, and to support the project directly.

8-step distilled for speed

Turbo bakes guidance into the weights, so it runs without classifier-free guidance - Krea's recommended settings are 8 steps at CFG 0.0 with a constant timestep shift (mu) of 1.15. It generates at 1k to 2k resolution and supports outputs up to 2048x2048, making it the build to reach for when you want Krea 2 aesthetics at a fraction of the compute.

RAW-compatible LoRAs

Turbo is compatible with LoRAs trained on Krea 2 RAW, so the standard workflow is to train on RAW and run inference here. You can stack community LoRAs on top during on-site generation.

On-site generation

You can generate with Krea 2 Turbo directly on Civitai and add LoRAs on top. Weights are available upstream on Hugging Face under Krea's community license with permissive use; commercial licensing is available through [email protected].
