The company Black Forest Labs has released the Flux 3 Image model for generating and editing images. According to the company, the model supports multi-step edits without changing other parts of the image. It also offers text-to-image generation, working with an input image, text rendering, and photorealistic outputs.

For scene composition, you can use bounding boxes and up to ten reference images. Output can reach resolutions of up to 4K. A free demo is available, and API access is offered with a 50% discount until 8 October.

Companies can license commercial weights to run and fine-tune it on their own infrastructure. Release of an open-weights version is expected in the coming weeks; for now, it is not yet an available option.

What changed

Why it matters

For image creators, the most practical feature is the ability to make step-by-step edits: according to the company, you can change selected parts while preserving the rest, which can reduce the need to redo an already finished composition. For companies, the commercial weights license allows running and fine-tuning on their own infrastructure.
