On Pro Plus and Max you can bring your own models to Mage. Import a checkpoint, LoRA, Textual Inversion, or Lycoris from a CivitAI or Hugging Face link, or from Google Drive, and run it on Mage’s GPUs with no local setup.
How to import a custom model
- Confirm you are on Pro Plus or Max.
- Copy the model’s URL from CivitAI or Hugging Face, or get a shareable Google Drive link.
- Open Import on mage.space and paste the link.
- Pick the type and the base architecture. Getting this wrong is the most common reason an import fails to load.
- Import. Progress shows under Jobs in Settings, and the model appears in your own model picker once processing finishes.
Limitations
- The architecture has to match: an SDXL LoRA against a Flux base fails or produces noise. Check the model card for what it was trained on.
- You are running on Mage’s hardware, so custom node graphs, extensions, and shell access do not come with it.
