Cloud Models

MindCraft Studio primarily runs locally on your Mac using the MLX framework. However, you can also choose to use Cloud Models to offload heavy computational tasks for a smoother experience.

Enabling Cloud Models

Cloud models can be found in the Model Library within Settings. Simply navigate to Settings and switch to the Cloud Models tab to browse and select available cloud-hosted models. Once enabled, they will appear in the Base Model dropdown in the Prompt Editor for use in your generations.
