Black Forest Labs launches Flux 3 Image with multi-step editing that leaves the rest of your picture alone

Black Forest Labs has released Flux 3 Image, the image side of its Flux 3 model family. The model supports multi-step edits without changing other parts of the image, BFL claims, and covers text-to-image, image-to-image, text rendering, and photorealism. Users can compose scenes with bounding boxes, include up to ten reference images, and output up to 4K. A free demo is available here.

API access is 50 percent off through October 8. Companies can license commercial weights to run and fine-tune the model on their own infrastructure. An open-weight version is expected in the coming weeks. Shortly before the launch, Ideogram announced its own editing-focused model with version 4.5, which is also set to ship as open weights soon.
