Botsify vs InvokeAI

The 6.14.0 release candidate is the largest change in this window by a wide margin: video generation via Wan 2.2 covering text-to-video and image-to-video, multi-GPU support, and a batch of new model families — Krea.2-Turbo and Raw, Ernie Turbo, Ideogram 4, plus Anima controlnets and inpainting. Everything before it is stabilization: 6.13.5 and its release candidate were explicitly maintenance cuts, 6.13.6 fixed a single crash in the Qwen Image models, and 6.13.0 in early June broadened model coverage including remotely hosted providers such as GPT Image.

The release notes have been signposting 6.14.0 since June — the 6.13.5 notes list video generation, multi-GPU, pressure-sensitive canvas, HiDiffusion and workflow-to-workflow calls as what was coming — so the last two months read as a deliberate quiet period holding the tree stable while the feature branch landed. The direction it lands in is broadening on two axes at once: modality, from images to video, and hardware, from one GPU to several. The 6.13.0 addition of remotely hosted models points the same way, toward a workbench that orchestrates whatever backend a model needs rather than one that only runs locally.

With 6.14.0 still at release candidate 1 and carrying this much new surface, the near-term work is most likely candidate iterations and fixes against the video and multi-GPU paths before stable. Several features named in the 6.13.5 notes — pressure-sensitive canvas, HiDiffusion, workflow-to-workflow calls — do not appear in the candidate's own highlights, so they are the obvious candidates for what follows.
