FLUX.1 [dev] is a 12 billion parameter rectified flow transformer capable of generating images from text descriptions. For more information, please read our blog post.

Key Features

1. Cutting-edge output quality, second only to our state-of-the-art model FLUX.1 [pro].
2. Competitive prompt following, matching the performance of closed source alternatives .
3. Trained using guidance distillation, making FLUX.1 [dev] more efficient.
4. Open weights to drive new scientific research, and empower artists to develop innovative workflows.
5. Generated outputs can be used for personal, scientific, and commercial purposes as described in the flux-1-dev-non-commercial-license.

Usage

We provide a reference implementation of FLUX.1 [dev], as well as sampling code, in a dedicated github repository. Developers and creatives looking to build on top of FLUX.1 [dev] are encouraged to use this as a starting point.

ComfyUI

FLUX.1 [dev] is also available in Comfy UI for local inference with a node-based workflow.

Limitations

• This model is not intended or able to provide factual information.
• As a statistical model this checkpoint might amplify existing societal biases.
• The model may fail to generate output that matches the prompts.
• Prompt following is heavily influenced by the prompting-style.

Out-of-Scope Use

The model and its derivatives may not be used

• In any way that violates any applicable national, federal, state, local or international law or regulation.
• For the purpose of exploiting, harming or attempting to exploit or harm minors in any way; including but not limited to the solicitation, creation, acquisition, or dissemination of child exploitative content.
• To generate or disseminate verifiably false information and/or content with the purpose of harming others.
• To generate or disseminate personal identifiable information that can be used to harm an individual.
• To harass, abuse, threaten, stalk, or bully individuals or groups of individuals.
• To create non-consensual nudity or illegal pornographic content.
• For fully automated decision making that adversely impacts an individual’s legal rights or otherwise creates or modifies a binding, enforceable obligation.
• Generating or facilitating large-scale disinformation campaigns.

Accelerated Inference

We provide a go_fast flag within the API which toggles a version of flux-schnell optimized for inference. Currently this version is a compiled fp8 quantization with an optimized attention kernel. We’ll update the model and this documentation as we develop further enhancements.
