A: Not currently.
Q: Why is my credit card getting declined?
A: At the moment, we can only accept payments from users located in the following countries: US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, and countries within the EU (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden).
Q: Why does building and testing in the glif builder use up credits on my account?
A: Runs (images, audio, text) that you generate within the builder during glif building and testing are charged at the same rate as your public runs. This is because we incur the same costs on our end for all runs, regardless of where and how they are generated.
Q: Why does one run use multiple credits? And why did one of my runs use more credits than another?
A: The short version: More complex glifs use more credits than less complex glifs. “Complexity” refers to a number of factors, including:
The underlying image, text, or audio model(s) used in the glif.
Some image generation models, such as Flux Pro, are more expensive to utilize vs. a less expensive model, such as Flux Schnell.
The number of glif blocks used within the glif.
The more models used by the glif, the more expensive it will be to run.
To learn more about the models used within the glif that you’re using, you can click on the three dots (…) and select View Source. This will allow you to see which glif blocks and models have been used.
Q: What happens if my run fails?
A: If your run fails, your credits will be refunded. If you do not believe you have the correct amount of credits remaining in your account, please reach out to contact@glif.xyz with your Glif account details.
Q: When does the daily run limit reset?
A: The daily run limit resets at midnight UTC time.
Q: How do I download an image I generated?
A: Click on the image you generated to open the run’s page. Click the down arrow below the image to download it to your device.
Q: Why is my output image a surprised hamster?
A: Prompts that have triggered the content moderation system on our end result in our “NSFW hamster.” You can learn more about our community guidelines here.
Q: Why is my output image a black rectangle?
A: A black box as a run result means that it was filtered by Flux's content moderation system. Please note that we are not able to control the ways in which third-party content moderation systems are calibrated.
Q: Why is my output image blurred?
A: A blurred image indicates that it was caught by Stable Diffusion 3’s own content moderation system. Please note that we are not able to control the ways in which third-party content moderation systems are calibrated.
A: Commercial licensing is available only for those who have purchased a paid credit bundle.
A: Please note that Glif cannot provide you with legal counsel or advice. Each individual model has its own attribution guidelines, which are determined by the company or organization that created the model. Please refer to the terms of service or usage guidelines created by the company behind the model you are using.
Q: How do I know which model was used to create my image/run?
A: Follow these steps to find the name of the model(s) being used in a glif:
Click on the title of the glif to open the glif’s page.
Click on the three dots (…) next to the glif title and select “View Source.”
Click on the glif’s image and text blocks and open Advanced Settings to locate the name of the text or image generation model that it’s using.
If the glif is using the ComfyUI block, you will need to click on the gray “Edit in ComfyUI Editor” button and locate the “Load ControlNet Model” node to find the name of the model it’s using. In this example, MistoLine is the name of the model being used:
Q: I received a ComfyUI block error. What do I do?
A: Your ComfyUI workflow needs to be in line with our setup. You can see the available nodes here: https://docs.glif.app/getting-started/building-a-glif/advanced-experimental-blocks/comfy-block
Feel free to contact our team with a link to the workflow you are trying to run, so that we can help you determine which nodes may be missing.
Q: Is there a timeout limit on glifs?
A: Yes. Two minutes is the maximum time that a glif can run before it times out and returns an error.
