Honest comparison
Wavemaker Platform vs hosted ComfyUI clouds
Managed Comfy clouds commoditize “run my graph without a GPU.” Differentiation here is operate-in-chat, priced preflight, and registry-honest Trust — not hosting alone.
Product shape
| Job | Typical hosted Comfy cloud | Wavemaker Platform |
|---|---|---|
| Run Comfy graphs without local GPU | Yes | Yes — Modal-backed runtime packs |
| Operate without opening the graph | Usually no — editor-first | Yes — guided chat inputs + cost |
| Itemized GPU + partner API cost | Often single GPU meter / opaque | Dual-meter preflight before confirm |
| Copy-ready run API from the UI | Varies (deploy-as-API add-ons) | Copy API curl for POST /runs + MCP tools |
| Commercial-use / privacy badges | Marketing copy varies | Trust Center = public registry fields only |
What we claim (receipt-backed)
- Copy API + dual-meter UI paths are present and unit-covered. — 2026-07-30 Floyo packaging audit PASS
- OpenAPI platform surface documents runs, files, wallet, and MCP. — docs/platform/guides/api-mcp.md + /developers#platform
- Node library lists allowlisted packs; rejected packs stay visible (honest empty/reject). — /platform/nodes + packaging audit
What we do not claim yet
Marketing honesty (roadmap D-08). Quality “beats” language unlocks only after golden corpus banking + family bakeoff verdicts.
- We do not claim broader custom-node coverage than the curated pack seed — Official Comfy Cloud and peers may allowlist differently.
- We do not claim lower price or faster cold-start than every host; quote the dual meter per run.
- We do not claim “beats legacy” production quality until corpus + bakeoffs unlock that language (D-08).
