Features

Completely free and open-source, fully self-hosted, support CPU & GPU & Apple Silicon
Windows 1-Click Installer
Supports various AI models to perform erase, inpainting or outpainting task.
- Erase models: These models can be used to remove unwanted object, defect, watermarks, people from image. I have also developed a macOS native app called OptiClean that provides this feature.
- Diffusion models: These models can be used to replace objects or perform outpainting. Some popular used models include:
Plugins:
- Segment Anything: Accurate and fast Interactive Object Segmentation
- RemoveBG: Remove image background or generate masks for foreground objects
- Anime Segmentation: Similar to RemoveBG, the model is specifically trained for anime images.
- RealESRGAN: Super Resolution
- GFPGAN: Face Restoration
- RestoreFormer: Face Restoration
FileManager: Browse your pictures conveniently and save them directly to the output directory.

Quick Start

Start webui

IOPaint provides a convenient webui for using the latest AI models to edit your images. You can install and start IOPaint easily by running following command:

# In order to use GPU, install cuda version of pytorch first.
# pip3 install torch==2.1.2 torchvision==0.16.2 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118
# AMD GPU users, please utilize the following command, only works on linux, as pytorch is not yet supported on Windows with ROCm.
# pip3 install torch==2.1.2 torchvision==0.16.2 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/rocm5.6

pip3 install iopaint
iopaint start --model=lama --device=cpu --port=8080

That's it, you can start using IOPaint by visiting http://localhost:8080 in your web browser. You can see more models supported by --model here.

Plugins

You can specify which plugins to use when starting the service, and you can view the commands to enable plugins by using iopaint start --help.

iopaint start --enable-interactive-seg --interactive-seg-device=cuda

Batch processing

You can also use IOPaint in the command line to batch process images:

iopaint run --model=lama --device=cpu \
--image=/path/to/image_folder \
--mask=/path/to/mask_folder \
--output=output_dir

--image is the folder containing input images, --mask is the folder containing corresponding mask images. When --mask is a path to a mask file, all images will be processed using this mask.
