The official ComfyUI custom node suite for **[Pollinations.ai](https://pollinations.ai/)** with full **BYOP (Bring Your Own Pollen)** support. 

Generate high-quality images, text, and videos using state-of-the-art models (like **Flux**, **DeepSeek**, and **Wan 2.6**) directly inside ComfyUI—**without using any of your local GPU VRAM.** 

Whether you are running on an 8GB laptop or a cloud server, this node suite offloads the heavy compute lifting to the Pollinations API.

## ✨ Features
* **Zero Local VRAM Required:** Generation happens entirely in the cloud.
* **Multimodal Generation:** Create Images, Videos, and Text all from within your node tree.
* **BYOP Support:** Seamlessly integrate your Pollinations API Key to use your own "Pollen" quota, bypassing anonymous rate limits and supporting the ecosystem.
* **Lightning Fast:** Outputs load directly as standard ComfyUI `IMAGE` and `STRING` formats, ready for immediate downstream processing (Upscaling, I2V, Compositing).

Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/ChunkyPanda29/ComfyUI-Pollinations-BYOP.git

Restart ComfyUI.

🛠️ How to Use

Double-click your ComfyUI canvas and search for Pollinations.
Select your desired node (Image, Video, or Text).
prompt: Enter your creative description.
model: Select your desired engine from the dropdown list.
api_key (Optional but Recommended): Paste your Pollinations API key here (See instructions below).
Connect the output to a Save Image, Video Combine, or Show Text node.
Click Queue Prompt!

🔑 How to get your API Key (BYOP)

Pollinations operates on a unique "Pollen" economy. While anonymous generation is free, it is heavily rate-limited. By using your own API key, you unlock your personal daily/weekly free Pollen grants, allowing for faster and more consistent generation.

Go to enter.pollinations.ai.
Sign in using your Discord or Google account.
Once logged in, your API key will be visible on your dashboard.
Copy the key and paste it into the api_key field of the ComfyUI node.
That's it! Your ComfyUI workflow is now fueled by your own Pollen.

❓ FAQ

Q: Does this cost money?
A: No! Pollinations provides free anonymous generations, and every registered user receives a free allowance of "Pollen" every week. You only pay if you decide to scale up massively and buy extra Pollen.

Q: Why does my generation fail or timeout?
A: If you are leaving the api_key field blank, you are using the anonymous public tier, which can experience high traffic or strict rate limits. Adding your free API key solves this.

Q: Does this download large models to my hard drive?
A: No. This is a pure API node. Your local installation size will remain exactly the same, making it perfect for budget 8GB VRAM setups.

Q: Can I chain these nodes together?
A: Yes! A popular workflow is to use the Text Gen node to expand a simple idea into a highly detailed visual prompt, then feed that string directly into the Image Gen node, and finally pass that image output into a Video generation node.
