Show HN: I spent a weekend building a tool that lets you make LoRAs without code (lorai.art)

In case someone else wants to know what LoRAs are https://softwarekeep.com/help-center/how-to-use-stable-diffu...


Thanks, I thought it’s LoRa the Long Range in radio communications and was confused by the title!


thanks sm yeah i should've added some clarification here in the comments


so think of LoRAs as "extensions" for ML models.

sometimes you need to generate content that's outside of the base model's training set (ex: paintings of your face).

generally speaking there are two options here: to finetune the entire model (very costly in terms of both compute and monetary cost) or to use a LoRA.

usually the process of making a LoRA would include uploading your training images to some directory, executing some python code via either google colabs or running github scripts.

this process can generally be very error-prone and time consuming (even for a programmer like myself) so i built this app to try to make it easier.

so far, 100s of people have used the app and 9 users are monthly subscribers.


great work :)
