Editor Review

Alpaca's core value is bringing Stable Diffusion AI directly into Photoshop. Unlike Photoshop's built-in AI, Alpaca uses open-source Stable Diffusion for more flexible AI image generation and editing. Directly use text-to-image, AI inpainting (select areas for AI regeneration), and AI outpainting (extend image boundaries) within Photoshop. Running inside Photoshop enables seamless use with layers, masks, and selections, switching between AI generation and manual editing. Especially suited for heavy Photoshop users, digital artists, and designers wanting AI in familiar environments.
