Like someone mentioned, comparisons are tough but I gotta disagree! I have been playing with DeepSeek Janus-Pro 7B all day and it is honestly amazing. The way it handles prompts is so much more natural than what I have seen elsewhere, plus it actually understands what it is looking at. You can definitely use it online without any setup:

• Hugging Face has several active Spaces for it right now
• The official DeepSeek website occasionally hosts a demo
• Replicate Janus-Pro API is great if you want to test it through a clean web interface Its way more than just a simple image generator tho... the visual understanding is top tier for an open model. Seriously love it!

Janus Pro is not as good as Google's Imagen3.
