Ideogram 4 Fast ⚡ — by fal

fal/ideogram-v4-fast is a speed-distilled Ideogram 4 checkpoint: 20 steps, one transformer, no runtime CFG. Ideogram 4 is trained on structured JSON captions, so a plain prompt is expanded into one on-device (Qwen3-VL) before generation — or paste your own JSON caption.

Note: runs in bf16 on ZeroGPU. fal's intended quality is on an FP4 execution path, so results here may differ slightly from the production endpoint.
