Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the 4MP resolution advantage for professional workflows?

    At 4 megapixels, FLUX.2 [max] outputs suit print layouts, large-format display, and editorial use where resolution headroom matters. Lower-resolution models require upscaling that introduces artifacts. Native 4 MP output avoids that step for most print and display applications.

  • How does FLUX.2 [max] differ from FLUX.2 Pro in practice?

    Max targets higher detail fidelity than Pro in textures, materials, and fine rendering. Both share the FLUX.2 architecture with a paired VLM and rectified flow transformer. The gap shows most in complex scenes, fine typography, and at full-resolution zoom.

  • Can FLUX.2 [max] generate images with reliable text and typography?

    Yes. Typography reliability is one of the explicit FLUX.2 design goals, and Max represents the highest prompt adherence tier in the family. Complex infographics, advertising copy, and UI elements with fine text render legibly and accurately.

  • How many reference images does FLUX.2 [max] accept?

    FLUX.2 [max] supports up to 10 simultaneous reference images, the same multi-reference capability as FLUX.2 Pro. This enables brand-controlled workflows where product images, logos, and character references are all applied at once.

  • Is FLUX.2 [max] a multimodal LLM?

    No. FLUX.2 [max] is a dedicated image generation model (a rectified flow transformer) with no conversational context or text completion interface. Use generateImage from the AI SDK to send requests.

  • When is FLUX.2 Pro sufficient instead of FLUX.2 [max]?

    FLUX.2 Pro covers most commercial generation use cases at a lower per-image cost. Choose Max when the workflow needs the top FLUX.2 tier: print production, high-stakes editorial, or brand assets where a visible quality gap is unacceptable.

  • What does FLUX.2 [max] cost per image?
