About Hartsy - Empowering Artists in the AI Age

About Hartsy

We are building a creator first community where technology champions artists. Fair pay, clear consent, and open collaboration. Coming soon.

Our Story

Born from a vision to bridge the gap between artificial intelligence and human creativity

Origins

Hartsy began with Harrowed, an artist who trained the harrlogos LoRA for SDXL using his own artwork. The model unexpectedly improved text quality in SDXL. I helped build the first version of Hartsy and wrote the Discord bot. Our early platform explored and expanded what this LoRA could do.

Rethink and Rebuild

When Flux arrived we took a step back. We chose to rebuild Hartsy so that artists could use AI without needing deep expertise in training, programming, or machine learning.

Today and Next

Hartsy is now growing into a community platform with an artist first approach and an open source mindset. We also release open source extensions for SwarmUI that are available today. More is on the way.
