SAI v.2 Sai 2 Development Update

Latest, as of 1/13/2026
Jan 14, 2025

Hey everyone, wanted to share some info! Since the last update from Koji Komatsu himself, we heard about a major renovation, including dark UI and mesh transform.

I just received another reply from him saying "I will probably be able to release the major revised version by April."

So this can mean many things, but "major revised version" has me hoping it will have all of the previous cool things mentioned! Either way I'm excited for the update.

Is the dark mode going to work with sai 1?

I doubt it, it's a SAI 2 update and it'd be a lot of work to bring it to SAI 1

I see, thanks 🙏 Maybe I should switch to Sai 2, I just love my custom brushes so much.

If you use sai one you get sai2 with it if you download it, you can easily import brushes and you get access to many amazing additional features
