About this version
Model description
🧠 ERNIE-Image AIO for ComfyUI
All-in-One Checkpoints • BF16 & FP8 • Text Encoder + VAE Integrated • Simple ComfyUI Setup
✨ What is this?
This release provides AIO (All-in-One) checkpoint versions of ERNIE-Image and ERNIE-Image-Turbo for ComfyUI.
Instead of loading separate model parts, these AIO versions already include the image model, text encoder, and VAE inside a single checkpoint file. Just place the model into your checkpoint folder, load it with the regular Checkpoint Loader node, and build a very small workflow around it.
The original ERNIE-Image family from Baidu focuses on strong instruction following, good text rendering, structured compositions, and support for a broad range of styles, from design-oriented images to more realistic or stylized outputs.

Workflow Releases
📦 Included Versions
This release contains AIO checkpoints for:
ERNIE-Base-AIO
ERNIE-Turbo-AIO
Each version is provided in:
BF16
FP8
⚙️ AIO Format
These checkpoints are made for a simple ComfyUI workflow.
Install path
Place the .safetensors files here:
\ComfyUI\models\checkpoints
Then load them with:
Checkpoint Loader
CLIP Text Encode (Prompt)
Empty Latent Image
KSampler
VAE Decode
Save Image
That is all you theoretically need to run the model.
🧪 Quantization Notes
The FP8 versions in this release were quantized by me.
For these FP8 AIO builds:
Image model: FP8
Text encoder: FP8
VAE: FP32
This setup was chosen to reduce size and improve practicality while keeping decoding stable and reliable.
🖼️ Recommended Usage
ERNIE-Base-AIO
Best for: general-purpose generation, stronger prompt fidelity, more deliberate results
Recommended CFG: 4.0
Recommended steps: 50
ERNIE-Turbo-AIO
Best for: fast generation, quick iteration, efficient workflows
Recommended CFG: 1.0
Recommended steps: 8
The official ERNIE-Image documentation recommends the same core resolutions for both releases, including:
1024×1024
848×1264
1264×848
768×1376
896×1200
1376×768
1200×896
🧾 Prompting
ERNIE models work best with natural language prompts.
Describe:
subject
scene
composition
lighting
mood
camera framing
details you actually want in the image
These models are especially interesting for:
posters
text-heavy designs
comics
structured layouts
prompt-sensitive image generation
🔧 ComfyUI Notes
These AIO checkpoints are designed for a checkpoint-style workflow, so you do not need to manually load separate text encoder or VAE files.
A workflow for this release will also be uploaded separately.
🙏 Credits
Huge thanks to the original ERNIE-Image team at Baidu for releasing these models and their research to the community. The original official releases are available here:
Official GitHub Repository
Both official model pages list the release under the Apache-2.0 license.
❤️ Final Note
I made these AIO versions to make ERNIE-Image easier to use in ComfyUI — especially for people who prefer the classic single-checkpoint workflow.
Load checkpoint, prompt, sample, decode, save — done.
