Currently offering models that convert text prompts to images or transform existing images, the company will this year add text-to-video and image-to-video AI.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCreating generative AI models requires time and expertise,\u201d said Yair Adato, co-founder and CEO of Bria. \u201cWe do the heavy lifting so product teams can adopt our models to achieve a technical edge and go to market quickly, without investing as many resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Advertising agencies and retailers can use Bria\u2019s tools to quickly generate visuals for marketing campaigns. And creative studios can adopt the models to develop stock imagery or edit visuals. Dozens of enterprise clients have integrated the startup\u2019s pretrained models or use its application programming interfaces.<\/p>\n<p>Bria develops its models with the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.nvidia.com\/nemo-framework\/user-guide\/latest\/index.html\">NVIDIA NeMo<\/a> framework, which is <a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ngc.nvidia.com\/orgs\/nvidia\/containers\/nemo\/tags\">available on NGC<\/a>, NVIDIA\u2019s hub for accelerated software. The company uses reference implementations from the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.nvidia.com\/nemo-framework\/user-guide\/latest\/multimodalmodels\/index.html\">NeMo Multimodal<\/a> collection, trained on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/data-center\/tensor-cores\/\">NVIDIA Tensor Core GPUs<\/a>, to enable high-throughput, low-latency image generation. It\u2019s also adopting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/gpu-cloud\/picasso\/\">NVIDIA Picasso<\/a>, a foundry for visual generative AI models, to run inference.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were looking for a framework to train our models efficiently \u2014 one that would minimize compute cost while scaling AI training to more quickly reach model convergence,\u201d said Misha Feinstein, vice president of research and development at Bria. \u201cNeMo features optimization techniques that allow us to maximize the GPUs\u2019 performance during both training and inference.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><b>Creative Solutions to Creative Challenges<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Bria, founded in 2020, offers flexible options for enterprises adopting visual generative AI. By adopting Bria\u2019s platform, its customers can gain a competitive edge by creating visual content at scale while retaining control of their data and technology. Developers can access its pretrained models through APIs or by directly licensing the source code and model weights for further fine-tuning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to build a company where we respect privacy, content ownership, data ownership and copyright,\u201d said Adato. \u201cTo create a healthy, sustainable industry, it\u2019s important to incentivize individuals to keep creating and innovating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adato likens Bria\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/bria.ai\/fair-diffusion\/\">attribution program<\/a> to a music streaming service that pays artists each time one of their songs is played. It\u2019s required for all customers who use Bria\u2019s models \u2014 even if they further train and fine-tune the model on their own.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nvidia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/BRIA-AI-2-672x336.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"672\" height=\"336\"><\/p>\n<p>Using licensed datasets provides additional benefits: the Bria team doesn\u2019t need to spend time cleaning the data or sorting out inappropriate content and misinformation.<\/p>\n<h2><b>A Growing Suite of NVIDIA-Accelerated Models<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Bria offers two versions of its text-to-image model. One islatency-optimized to rapidly accomplish tasks like image background generation. The other offers higher image resolution. Additional foundation models enable super-resolution, object removal, object generation, inpainting and outpainting.<\/p>\n<p>The company is working to continuously increase the resolution of its generated images, further reduce latency and develop domain-specific models for industries such as ecommerce and stock imagery. Inference is accelerated by the <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.nvidia.com\/triton-inference-server\">NVIDIA Triton Inference Server<\/a> software and the <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.nvidia.com\/tensorrt\">NVIDIA TensorRT<\/a> software development kit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re running on NVIDIA frameworks, hardware and software,\u201d said Feinstein. \u201cNVIDIA experts have helped us optimize these tools for our needs \u2014 we would probably run much slower without their help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nvidia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/BRIA-AI-1-672x419.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"672\" height=\"419\"><\/p>\n<p>To keep up with the latest hardware and networking infrastructure, Bria uses cloud computing resources: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/data-center\/h100\/\">NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs<\/a> for AI training and a variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/data-center\/tensor-cores\/\">NVIDIA Tensor Core GPUs<\/a> for inference.<\/p>\n<p>Bria is a member of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/startups\/\">NVIDIA Inception<\/a>, a program that provides startups with technological support and AI platform guidance.
