Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
promptstringYes-Text prompt for image generation
heightintegerNo1024Output height (64-2048). Credits scale with width x height
widthintegerNo1024Output width (64-2048). Credits scale with width x height
num_inference_stepsintegerNo8Inference steps (1-50). 8 is the turbo sweet spot
guidance_scalenumberNo0Guidance scale. Should be 0 for turbo models

Tips & Best Practices

1Credits scale with resolution: 512px = 7.5, 1024px = 30, 2048px = 120 โ€” size images to what you need
2Keep guidance_scale 0 and steps 8; that's what turbo is tuned for
3Enable go_fast for maximum throughput in bulk pipelines
4Generate small for drafts, then regenerate the winner at 2048px with the same seed

Use Cases

High-volume image generation
Small thumbnails at fractional cost
Rapid prompt iteration
Cost-optimized production pipelines
2K wallpapers and banners
