Image and audio models from fal now available on DigitalOcean
Blog post from DigitalOcean
DigitalOcean has added four fal multimodal AI models to its Serverless Inference platform in public preview, enabling developers to generate images and audio through an API without managing infrastructure, scaling, or vendor integrations. The available models include Stable Diffusion XL Fast and FLUX.1 Schnell for image generation, Stable Audio for text-to-audio creation, and ElevenLabs Multilingual v2 for text-to-speech. Users must opt in through the DigitalOcean console, with access typically granted within 10 to 15 minutes, then submit asynchronous API requests using a model access key. Requests return an ID that can be polled through a status endpoint until complete, after which the generated image or audio result can be retrieved from a separate endpoint.
