We would like to remind you today of an important update in the IONOS AI Model Hub. As we constantly strive to provide you with only the most current and advanced AI models, Stable Diffusion XL will be discontinued on 12.01.2026, as stated in our reminder email on the 22.12.2025 and announced in our documentation*

What does this mean for you?
Starting from the date mentioned above, Stable Diffusion XL will no longer be available for use in the IONOS AI Model Hub. We recommend that you try FLUX.1 [schnell] instead or take a look at our full range of available AI models.
