What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useFails

A Syrian tester's attempt to open DreamStudio ('Try it for free' from the stability.ai homepage) redirected to Stability AI's login gateway (auth.stability.ai), which returned 'Access denied,' blocking entry to the image-generation tool entirely.

Landing pageWorks

The main stability.ai site, the developer platform (platform.stability.ai) with its model and API documentation, and the DreamStudio marketing page all loaded normally for a Syrian tester.
