> Juggernaut XI is the **latest evolution** of the Juggernaut SDXL line. Like Juggernaut X, it was **trained from the ground up** with **GPT-4 Vision** captioning — but with another pass of dataset cleanup, refined shot-type classification, and improved aesthetic targeting on top. Sharper hands, faces, eyes, and composition; stronger prompt adherence; native text rendering; and the same **RunDiffusion Photo** detail refinement that made earlier versions popular.

## What's Better in XI

- 🎨 **Massively improved aesthetics** — refined lighting, color, and composition vs. v10
- 🖐️ **Better hands, eyes, faces, and overall human anatomy**
- 🎯 **Even stronger prompt adherence** — XI does what you ask with less wrestling than X
- 📸 **Cleaner shot-type classification** — Full Body / Mid Shot / Portrait distinctions are crisper
- 🔤 **Native text rendering** — legible signage, labels, short phrases
- 💬 **Two prompting styles** — Natural language *or* Tagging (use whichever fits)
- 🖼️ **RunDiffusion Photo** refinement for fine detail

## Two Prompting Styles

| Style | Best for | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Natural language** | Storytelling, scenes, complex instructions | *"A photographer on a windswept cliff at golden hour, holding a vintage Leica, ocean churning below"* |
| **Tagging** | Quick iteration, established workflows | *`photograph, cliff, golden hour, vintage Leica, ocean, waves, cinematic lighting`* |

📖 **For deeper prompting technique** — see the [**RunDiffusion prompting library**](https://www.rundiffusion.com/prompting?utm_source=huggingface&utm_medium=model_card&utm_campaign=juggernaut_xi_v11&utm_content=prompting_inline). Free to read, no signup.

## Recommended Settings

| Parameter | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Resolution | `832 × 1216` (portrait) · `1216 × 832` (landscape) |
| Sampler | `DPM++ 2M Karras` |
| Steps | `30 – 40` |
| CFG scale | `3 – 7` (lower = more realistic) |
| VAE | **Already baked in** — no external VAE required |

For a faster variant, see [**Juggernaut XI Lightning**](https://huggingface.co/RunDiffusion/Juggernaut-XI-Lightning) — same XI base, distilled to 5–7-step inference.

## Two Ways to Run Juggernaut XI

### 🚀 Easiest — Run it on RunDiffusion (recommended)

One-click access inside ComfyUI, Forge, Automatic1111, Fooocus, InvokeAI, or SwarmUI. **No HF gate.** No setup. **Free trial included**, plus access to every other Juggernaut model on the same account.

### 💻 Or run it locally — Diffusers

> **Note:** XI is a gated model — you must accept the terms above and authenticate with `huggingface-cli login` (or set `HF_TOKEN`) before pulling weights.

```python
import torch
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline

pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "RunDiffusion/Juggernaut-XI-v11",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    use_safetensors=True,
).to("cuda")

prompt = "A photographer on a windswept cliff at golden hour, holding a vintage Leica, the ocean churning below, cinematic lighting, hyperdetailed photography"

image = pipe(prompt, width=832, height=1216, num_inference_steps=35, guidance_scale=5.0).images[0]
image.save("juggernaut_xi_v11.png")
```
