April Wrapped
ComfyUI April Wrapped: Every Launch From a Very Busy Month
Bye April! We shipped a ton of new models, features and expanded our Comfy Hub.
If you blinked, here’s the catch-up.
New models
ByteDance’s next-gen video model, live as a partner node on day one.
Three modes out the gate: Text-to-Video, Reference-to-Video, and First/Last-Frame to Video, pick your level of creative control.
Upload an AI-generated image or a Real human portrait, then create videos with a consistent identity and authentic facial expressions.
A multi-talented partner node covering Text-to-Video, Image-to-Video, Reference-to-Video, and video editing.
The latest in the Wan 2.7 multi-use case video model is available as a partner node
Baidu’s open-source text-to-image model built on8B Diffusion Transformer (DiT).
Fully open weights for the folks who like to tinker
Open-source music generation, but commercial-grade quality.
Tuned for full-song coherence: verses, choruses, and arrangements that actually hold together.
Structured SVG generation as a partner node: vector output, not pixels.
Great for icons, diagrams, and anywhere you need infinite scalability without re-rendering.
OpenAI’s latest image model available via partner node.
Both text-to-image and editing in a single workflow
SUPIR
Open-source image restoration support: bring blurry, degraded, or low-res images back to life.
Pairs nicely with anything you’d run through an upscaler
RIFE & FILM Frame Interpolation
Open-source frame interpolation, now natively supported.
Use it to smooth motion, hit higher frame rates, or stretch short clips into something cinematic.
SAM 3 & SAM 3.1
Meta’s SAM 3 and SAM 3.1 models for image and video segmentation are now natively supported
Veo 3.1 Lite & Veo 3.1 Fast
Google’s lighter and cheaper Veo variants are now partner-node supported.
Video-to-music, now inside ComfyUI.
Drop in a clip, get a soundtrack tuned to its motion and mood.
Feature releases
Parallel Job Execution through API
You can now run multiple workflows in parallel — a serious speedup for anyone batching, testing variations, or running production pipelines.
The single feature most likely to change how your day actually feels.
ComfyHub is gaining momentum
Crossed nearly 500 workflows on the Hub.
If you haven’t browsed lately, there’s a good chance someone already built the workflow you were about to make.
Excited about May!
What has been done with SUPIR, I dont see any details or explanation on it. SUPIR has been there for a long time. Whats new here ?
You are to be truly congratulated for your recent spectacular run in increasing the breadth and depth of ComfyUI.
However, there is some work available to be done to improve the interface's foundations:
1. Better co-ordination with dependencies.
2. A way to upload nodes outside of Manager (I can’t get Manager to upload ComfyUI-HyperLoRA)
3. Get the Desktop version running smoothly in Windows. The Discord Help channel still advises to avoid it like the plague.
4. Provide a quick way to check to see which version of ComfyUI I’m running.
5. Provide a dependable way to update the Manager
6. Provide automatic updates of ComfyUI on windows—this seems available only on Mac.
Please don't become like ProWritingAid which constantly adds bright and new and shiny features while preserving an old, antiquated, and frustrating user experience.
A strong foundation leads to a strong platform.
