Private AI art generation
Prompts and inference stay on the Mac. After the one-time model download, image generation does not require an internet connection.
Local AI image generator for Mac
Turn words into images.
Keep everything local.
Krealize is a native macOS app for private, on-device AI image generation with Krea 2 Turbo. Prompts and generated images stay on your Mac-no account, cloud generation, advertising, analytics, or developer telemetry.

A complete local workflow
Prompt, generate, refine, repeat.
Describe an idea, choose a resolution and seed, and let Krea 2 Turbo render directly on your Apple silicon Mac. Krealize saves generations to a private local gallery, records reproducible settings, and lets you return to a result without rebuilding the prompt from memory.
Reproducible creative control
Use random or manual seeds, four output sizes, generation metadata, recent prompt history, watermarks, and zoomable previews.
Local gallery
Browse generated images, inspect their prompt and settings, reuse a previous configuration, save a copy, or move an image to Trash.
Advanced model workflows
Choose a compatible Krea 2 MLX checkpoint and, with the optional one-time PRO upgrade, import custom LoRA or LoKr adapters and save presets.
The actual app, at work
A focused native canvas for local AI creation.

Why local generation?
A private AI image generator made for macOS.
Cloud image generators upload prompts-and often reference images-to remote servers. Krealize takes a different approach: Krea 2 Turbo inference runs locally with MLX and Metal on Apple silicon. Your creative drafts, prompt history, generated PNGs, imported adapters, and generation metadata remain on your Mac.
Local generation is useful for concept artists, designers, indie developers, illustrators, marketers, writers, and privacy-conscious creators who want fast visual exploration without a recurring cloud service or an account. Performance depends on Mac model, memory, output size, and loaded adapters.
Transparent first-run setup
Download once.
Create locally.
Krealize clearly asks before downloading the approximately 22.2 GB Krea 2 Turbo Q8 checkpoint from Hugging Face. The setup screen provides the download size, storage estimate, license, acceptable-use policy, progress, speed, and remaining-time estimate.
The model is an unofficial quantized derivative of Krea 2 Turbo and is governed by the Krea 2 Community License. Krealize bundles the applicable notices and includes a local prompt safety filter.
Privacy without an asterisk
Your ideas stay yours.
Krealize has no developer backend, analytics SDK, ad network, tracking, or user account. Network access is used for the user-approved model download from Hugging Face and for Apple to process or restore Krealize PRO purchases.

Does Krealize send prompts or images to a server?
No. Prompts, inference, generated images, and metadata stay on your Mac.
What Mac does Krealize require?
Krealize requires an Apple silicon Mac running macOS 26 or later. More unified memory generally improves performance, especially at larger output sizes.
Is Krealize PRO a subscription?
No. PRO is an optional one-time, non-consumable purchase through the Mac App Store.
Can Krealize work offline?
Yes, after the initial model download. App Store purchase verification and restoration require access to Apple’s services.
