FLUX 3 Image

FLUX 3 Image, released October 1, 2026, is the image side of Black Forest Labs' FLUX 3 model family and one of the newest entries in the catalog. It unifies generation and editing: multi-turn edits are designed to leave untouched regions of the image visually unchanged, addressing the drift that plagues iterative editing in diffusion models. Users compose scenes with bounding boxes on a 0-1000 canvas, attach up to ten reference images, and render at fixed tiers from 768px up to 4K.

BFL is offering commercial weight licenses for fine-tuning and self-hosting today, and an open-weight release is expected within weeks of launch, following the company's pattern of preceding open access with hosted API releases. Independent checks of the vendor's pixel-preservation claims suggest teams should test on their own files before committing production workflows. The company, founded by the Stable Diffusion researchers, reached a $3.25 billion valuation after its December 2025 Series B.
