Flux 2 Max

FLUX.2 [max] is the top‑tier image model from Black Forest Labs, engineered for the highest image quality, exceptional prompt following, and state‑of‑the‑art consistency across characters, products, styles, and backgrounds.

What it does best - Delivers premium, photorealistic or stylized images from text or from reference images - Preserves identity and fine details across batches and complex edits - Follows short and long prompts with best‑in‑class accuracy - Generates diverse yet on‑brief results for exploration and ideation - Runs nearly as fast as FLUX.2 [pro], up to 3× faster than comparable models Inputs and controls - prompt (required): Natural‑language description of the image you want - input_images (optional, up to 8 via API): Use single or multiple references for image‑to‑image generation and multi‑reference consistency - aspect_ratio: Choose presets like 1:1, 16:9, 4:5, etc., or use match_input_image; select custom to specify width and height - resolution: 0.5–4 MP (2 MP or below recommended). Max dimension is 2048×2048; very high resolutions may be clipped when not 1:1 - width and height (custom only): Must be multiples of 32 - safety_tolerance: 1 = most strict, 5 = most permissive - seed: Set for reproducible outputs - output_format: webp, jpg, or png - output_quality: 0–100 (quality setting for non‑PNG formats) Output - Direct image URL (uri) to your generated asset Ideal use cases - E‑commerce and product marketing: launch‑ready product shots, precise color variants (including hex‑code control), consistent asset sets - Film, TV, and animation: cinematic key frames with preserved characters and emotions for high‑end pre‑viz - Creative design: brand‑faithful backgrounds, styles, and compositions for campaigns and content - Food, interiors, and lifestyle: realistic polish, editorial quality, and consistent lighting/color - 3D and environment ideation: new views from limited references for scenes and virtual tours When to use FLUX.2 [max] vs pro/flex - Choose FLUX.2 [max] for maximum quality, prompt adherence, and multi‑reference consistency - Choose FLUX.2 [pro] for top performance at scale and budget efficiency - Choose FLUX.2 [flex] when your task is text‑heavy or demands perfect small‑detail preservation and typography Best‑practice tips - Be explicit with key subjects, camera angle, lighting, and mood - Provide up to 8 reference images for stronger identity or product consistency - Start with 1 MP or 2 MP for speed and quality balance; increase only if needed - Use seed to reproduce results and iterate predictably - Use match_input_image for image‑to‑image aspect ratio alignment
