Made with ComfyUI 2025: From Open Source to the World Stage

Year Three of ComfyUI. A Turning Point.

Jan 09, 2026

In 2025, ComfyUI reached a turning point.

What began as an experimental playground 3 years ago has grown into an industry-grade creative engine. Over the past year, we’ve seen ComfyUI used across film, VFX, animation, brand work, software building, gaming, live visuals, and beyond.

The work made with ComfyUI is now appearing on the world’s biggest stages, entering the most demanding production pipelines, and is trusted by top-tier artists and teams.

We’ve seen what it takes.

We know the long nights testing new models, the careful construction of workflows, the trade-offs made for control, consistency, and reliability, the patience for solving the cutting-edge errors, and the confidence to modify this tool just to create something way beyond. Most importantly, we’ve seen a community where people help each other push further, together.

We’ve always believed that AI is just one tool among many. What matters is the creator: their judgment, their taste, the evolving ideas. Controlability gives creators room to experiment and build intuition through countless adjustments.

We want to take a moment to celebrate the work built with ComfyUI over the past year. There are far more projects than we can show here. Tell us in the comments what you think are the standout ComfyUI projects. This moment belongs to everyone who used it and helped build it.

We genuinely believe ComfyUI can become the most powerful creative system in this era, grounded in open source, enabled by the scalability of a node-based system, and shaped by the people behind it: a most committed team and an unmatched community.

If you believe in that future that creativity belongs to everyone, if you care about craft, ownership, and pushing through the hardest problems, we should build the next chapter together.
