Stable Diffusion Deployment in St Albans

Self-hosting image generation for St Albans organisations, where running it yourself means the moderation problem becomes yours. Hosted services filter both what goes in and what comes out; a self-hosted deployment does neither by default, so anything users can prompt, they will eventually prompt.

Why this comes up

The problem

Image generation was exposed to users on self-hosted infrastructure with no filtering of prompts or outputs at all.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Prompt and output filtering implemented, since the model provides none
  • Acceptable use defined and enforced in the application, not left to good faith
  • Generated images logged with the prompt and the user who requested them
  • Model and checkpoint licences confirmed, as they vary considerably
  • VRAM sized against the model, resolution and batch size you intend to run
  • Queueing implemented, because generation is slow relative to a web request

Stable Diffusion Deployment in St Albans — common questions

Why is moderation our problem now?
Because nothing else is doing it. A hosted service refuses certain prompts and screens outputs; a self-hosted model generates what it is asked for, so any application exposing it to users needs its own controls or it will eventually produce something indefensible.
What should be logged?
The prompt, the parameters, the output and who requested it. If an image later becomes a problem, the ability to establish what was asked for and by whom is the difference between a contained incident and an investigation with no evidence.
Do the licences differ?
Considerably, across base models and community checkpoints alike. Some permit commercial use freely, some restrict it, and fine-tuned checkpoints inherit conditions from what they were built on — which needs checking per model rather than once.
How much hardware do we need?
It follows from model, resolution and how many images you generate at once. That is a calculation rather than a guess, and doing it early avoids provisioning a GPU that cannot hold the configuration you intended to run.
Do you work with businesses across Hertfordshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including St Albans and the surrounding Hertfordshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of St Albans businesses do you usually work with?
Professional services and consultancy systems for small firms serving London clients from a Hertfordshire base. Beyond that we work across Professional Services, Financial Services, Media, Retail and Construction.
Do you cover the areas around St Albans?
Yes — we work throughout East of England, including London, Milton Keynes, Cambridge. St Albans is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Hertfordshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
