What you give up either way

Access to vendor-hosted proprietary models and curated model catalogue (Seedance 2.5, Runway integrations)
High-throughput, low-latency generation and large concurrent capacity
Built-in team features: centralized billing, shared tokens, workspace admin UI
Polished multimodal UI, contests/community features, and commercial licensing guarantees

An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches ImagineArt, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
