Summary

Atelier sends what it needs to make your pictures and nothing more. Your prompt and any images you attach go to a cloud GPU to be turned into a picture. Prompt help goes to a language model. If you sign in, your gallery syncs to your own private account. There are no ads, no analytics and no tracking.

Making pictures

• Cloud (iPhone and Mac). Your prompt, settings (shape, quality, steps, seed, Avoid, Text) and any images you attach as Person, Product or Reference are sent over HTTPS to a GPU worker rented from Runpod, which runs Qwen-Image-2.1 and returns the finished picture. The same applies to Edit this, Draw on, Cut out, Zoom out, Zoom in and More real, which send the picture you are working on.
• This Mac. With the This Mac engine, generation runs locally on your Mac and nothing leaves it.
• Face check. Deciding whether a photo shows a person is done on your device with Apple's Vision framework.

Prompt help

Improve, Refine and Photo to prompt send your prompt text, and for Photo to prompt a downsized copy of the photo you picked, over HTTPS to OpenRouter, which runs a Qwen language model and returns the text. Improve and Refine never wake the image GPU.

Your account and gallery

Signing in is optional for making pictures. It is how your gallery reaches your other devices. Accounts are hosted on Berth, and you can sign in with Apple, with an email and password, or with a code sent to your email.

• Gallery. Each picture is stored as the image plus a small file with its details (prompt, size, steps, seed, time), in a private storage bucket that only your account can read or write. Favourites and settings sync the same way.
• Security events. Sign ins, failed sign ins and password changes are recorded with the time, method, IP address and app or browser description, so Atelier can tell you about a new sign in and list your devices. Only your account can read them.
• Tokens. Your session is kept in the device keychain. Passwords and codes are never stored by the app.

Without an account, your gallery stays on the device.

What we don't do

No ads, no analytics SDKs, no third-party tracking, and no selling of data. Images and prompts are sent only to the services above, and only to make your pictures or sync your gallery.

Your controls

• Delete removes a picture on the device and from your synced gallery.
• Under Settings, Account, you can see every signed-in device and sign any of them out.
• To delete your account and everything synced to it, email hello@atberth.com from the address you signed up with.
