What Krea does
Krea is a browser-based creative suite for generating, editing and upscaling images, video and 3D models. Instead of a single model, it gives you access to dozens, including its own Krea 3 plus Flux, Veo 3.1, Kling, Runway and Seedance, behind one compute-unit balance. It is known for realtime generation that updates as you draw or type, and also offers LoRA training on your own images, a node editor for chaining models, and upscaling to very high resolutions.
