Shakker AI
Shakker AI is a browser-based image generation platform bundling a simplified generator, hosted Automatic1111 WebUI, ComfyUI and no-GPU LoRA training, with free face-swap and style-transfer tools. The platform closes on 30 September 2026.
What is Shakker AI?
Shakker AI is a web platform for generative image creation that puts an entire Stable Diffusion toolchain in the browser. Four tools sit side by side. The Shakker Generator is the guided entry point, built around an infinite canvas where you zoom, recentre, duplicate and share a result in a single click. Online Automatic1111 WebUI reproduces the familiar A1111 interface, with text-to-image, image-to-image, inpainting, samplers, CFG Scale, ControlNet, Hiresfix and Tiled Diffusion. Online ComfyUI brings node-based workflows and custom nodes with no local deployment. Online Training completes the set by letting you fine-tune your own models, advertised as requiring no GPU and ready to train all types of models, LoRA and checkpoints included.
Underneath sit Stable Diffusion and Flux models alongside in-house ones, notably Shakker Zeno-1, which the site describes as able to create any image in any style, not limited to photography, illustration or 3D. The model library is organised by channel: Illustration, Architecture, Logo&Icon, Photography, Anime and Games, Product Design, Concept Art, Game Design and Space Design. Two tools are free and need no subscription at all, a face swap that handles group photos and a deep-learning style transfer for photos and videos.
An account is mandatory before generating or publishing and can be opened by email or through Google, Discord or GitHub. A community layer sits on top, with a Showcase gallery, a creators page, model publishing, creator earnings and withdrawals, and the interface is available in eleven languages, mostly South-East and East Asian. The decisive fact, however, is that Shakker AI is closing. A notice published on 24 August 2026 confirms that the platform ceases operations on 30 September 2026 at 00:00 UTC, after which the website and all services become unavailable. New memberships have already stopped, automatic renewal has been switched off, and personal data will be deleted or anonymised within 180 days of the closure date. The terms name STARARC TECH PTE. LTD., a Singapore company, as the operator, while the contact page and the cookie policy name a British company instead.

When not to use Shakker AI
- Anyone planning a durable workflow, since the platform shuts down on 30 September 2026
- Developers who need programmatic access: there is no public API and no developer documentation
- Teams with GDPR obligations, as the site offers no compliance statement, no DPA and no Article 27 representative
- Users who want a mobile app or a browser extension, because the service is web-only
- Anyone under 13, who is barred from the service by the terms of use
How to use Shakker AI
A typical end-to-end flow, from setup to results.
- Create an account with an email address, or sign in through Google, Discord or GitHub, since generating and publishing both require one
- Pick the tool that matches your level: Shakker Generator for a guided experience, WebUI or ComfyUI for full control
- Browse the model library by channel, from Illustration and Photography to Logo&Icon, Product Design, Architecture and Anime and Games, then select a base model
- Add one or more LoRA models if you are after a specific style or effect
- Write your prompt in the prompt box, or start from one of the quick-start templates
- Adjust the generation settings, including sampler, CFG Scale, ControlNet, Hiresfix, Tiled Diffusion and Tiled VAE
- Generate, then work the result on the infinite canvas by zooming, recentring, duplicating or sharing it
- Refine with inpainting or image-to-image, then upscale for extra detail
- Export in PNG, JPG or WEBP, or publish the result to the community gallery
- Keep an eye on your fast-token balance, which resets on your billing date without carrying unused tokens over

Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how Shakker AI handles your data.
GDPR overview
There is no mention of the GDPR anywhere on the site. A dedicated search across the homepage, the terms of use, the privacy policy, the cookie policy and the return policy found no occurrence of GDPR, General Data Protection, CCPA, SOC 2 or ISO 27001. No data processing agreement is published or offered, no representative is designated under Article 27, no data protection officer is named, and no subprocessor list exists: only Google Analytics and Google AdSense are identified, in the cookie policy. Rights can be exercised solely by writing to contact@shakker.ai, and the policy neither enumerates those rights nor commits to a response time. Both the privacy policy and the terms carry an effective date of 11 January 2024.
Who owns the data?
Under section 2.1 of the terms you own the assets you create, and Shakker AI makes no ownership or copyright claim over AI-generated images. Section 3.6 repeats that no ownership is asserted over uploaded or published content. Section 3.4a, however, grants the operator a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-free and irrevocable copyright licence to reproduce, adapt, display, perform, sublicense and distribute both your text and image prompts and the assets you produce. Model files you upload for download carry a comparable licence under 3.5b. Ownership stays with you, but the licence you grant never expires and cannot be withdrawn.
Reuse rights
You may reuse what you generate without asking permission: the terms state that all created content may be freely used by you. Commercial reuse depends on your plan, since access to the Member Exclusive models, which allows generated pictures to be used commercially, is a paid benefit that the free tier does not include. Content downloaded from other users is treated differently: section 4.1 requires you to accept that you claim no rights to it, and section 4.2 disclaims any warranty of non-infringement, leaving you to indemnify the operator against copyright claims arising from your use of it. Nothing in the documents limits reuse of your own outputs by territory or by volume.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
The site does not declare where user data is hosted. The privacy policy contains no hosting section; it notes only, in section 2.5, that service providers operating in other countries may be used and that personal information may be transferred to the United States or other locations where privacy laws may be less protective than in the user's own state, province or country. The same section promises adequate controls without naming a legal mechanism, so no standard contractual clauses and no adequacy decision are cited. Section 2.4 adds the usual caveat that no transmission or storage method is entirely secure. As a technical indication rather than a company statement, the domain resolves to 47.253.103.60, geolocated in Virginia Beach, United States, on Alibaba (US) Technology's network, with static assets served from web-static2 and web-static3 subdomains. The terms describe a global multi-site architecture with computing power kept close to users, which implies several regions without identifying any.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting Shakker AI.
- The 30 September 2026 shutdown: anything left on the platform goes with it, and the deletion is described as irreversible
- The perpetual, irrevocable licence you grant over every prompt you type and every image you generate outlives the platform itself
- Face swapping invites impersonation: the terms forbid content that infringes privacy or publicity rights, but the tool makes it trivial to try
- Uploading photographs of other people means handing their likeness to a service that makes no data protection commitment
- Leaning on generated visuals can quietly erode the habit of sketching, art-directing and judging composition for yourself
- Unused monthly tokens expire, which nudges people into generating volume for its own sake as the billing date approaches
- Behavioural advertising cookies and Google AdSense are active, and the operator's identity changes from one legal document to the next
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Getting started is easy: nothing to install, no local deployment and no GPU, since everything runs in the browser. An account is required before generating or publishing and can be opened with an email address or through Google, Discord or GitHub. The Shakker Generator targets beginners, with quick-start templates and a tutorial system. ComfyUI and LoRA training are another matter and assume real familiarity with diffusion, from samplers and CFG Scale to ControlNet and dataset preparation. The interface warns that outdated browsers are refused and recommends Chrome.

Should you pick Shakker AI?
Shakker AI assembled something genuinely uncommon: Automatic1111, ComfyUI and online model training, all reachable from a browser with no installation and no graphics card, wrapped around a community model library and a creator revenue system. For anyone who wanted the depth of a local Stable Diffusion setup without the hardware, that combination was hard to match, and a permanent free tier plus two free-standing tools made it easy to try.
That verdict is now historical. The platform ceases operations on 30 September 2026 at 00:00 UTC. New memberships have already closed, automatic renewal has been disabled, and personal data held on the platform will be deleted or anonymised within 180 days of that date, irreversibly. There is no sense in starting a project here. The useful actions left are to download your models and images, request a refund for the unused part of a membership or for unused purchased credits by writing to billing@shakker.ai, and withdraw any creator balance, the usual minimum threshold having been waived for the settlement.
Two caveats deserve attention even in that short window. The licence you grant over your prompts and your generated assets is perpetual and irrevocable, and it does not lapse when the service does. And the legal identity behind the site is inconsistent: the terms name a Singapore company incorporated on 10 June 2026, while the contact page and the cookie policy name a British one. Add the complete absence of any GDPR statement, data processing agreement or subprocessor list, and European users have little to fall back on once the lights go out. Save your work, claim what you are owed, and plan your move elsewhere.
