# Mass Iteration Studio

Upload one image, get N variants back as PNG. Color, style and form are sampled
per variant from editable prompt pools. Requires **ZeroGPU** hardware.

> Set `sdk_version` above to the value Hugging Face wrote into the README it
> generated for your Space.

## Setup

1. New Space → SDK **Gradio** → Settings → Hardware → **ZeroGPU**.
2. Upload `app.py`, `requirements.txt`, `README.md`.
3. First run downloads ~7 GB of weights and takes several minutes. Every run
   after that starts instantly — the pipeline stays in memory.

## How the run is structured

A 20-image run is not one GPU call. Variants are grouped by denoising strength
and rendered in batches, each batch its own `@spaces.GPU(duration=75)` call.
That keeps every call well under the platform ceiling and lets results stream
into the gallery as they finish, instead of appearing all at once at the end.

## Models

| Option | Time per image | 20 variants | License |
|---|---|---|---|
| SDXL-Lightning 4-step (default) | ~0.8 s | ~16 s | OpenRAIL++ base, Apache 2.0 LoRA |
| SDXL-Turbo 2-step | ~0.45 s | ~9 s | non-commercial |
| SD-Turbo 2-step | ~0.2 s | ~4 s | non-commercial |

Pro quota is 1500 GPU-seconds per day, so the default model gives roughly 90
runs of 20 variants before the window resets.

## The reinvention slider

One control decides everything about how far variants drift:

- **0.2–0.35** — recolor and restyle, subject untouched
- **0.4–0.55** — forms shift, proportions change, subject still recognizable
- **0.65–0.85** — only the rough composition survives

Each variant draws its own value between your minimum and maximum, snapped to
six discrete levels so same-level variants can share a batched GPU call.

## Prompt pools

Three editable text boxes, one option per line. Sampling is either a random mix
or a grid sweep that walks every combination in order — useful when you want
systematic coverage rather than a lucky draw.

Every run writes `manifest.csv` into the ZIP with the prompt, strength and seed
behind each file. To rebuild a single variant exactly, set the base seed and
turn off randomization.

## Output

PNG only. Individual downloads from the gallery, or the full run as a ZIP.
