Flux 3 Klein Image Distilled Text To Image API Documentation
Playground
Try it on WaveSpeedAI!FLUX 3 Klein Distilled Text-to-Image generates images from text prompts, with 1K or 2K output and flexible aspect ratios. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.
Features
FLUX 3 Klein Distilled Text-to-Image runs the fast, production-ready FLUX 3 Klein checkpoint from Black Forest Labs (5.6B open weights). Describe the image you want and get it back in seconds.
Why Choose This?
-
Prompt-driven generation
Full scene captions (framing, subject, background, lighting) give the best results. -
Text rendering
Clear, readable text inside generated images. -
Layout control with bounding boxes
Append a JSON list of boxes on a0to1000grid to place elements; in edits, refer to the n-th reference as<ref_image_n>. -
1K and 2K output
Choose1k(~1 megapixel) or2k(~4 megapixels) at 15 aspect ratios. -
Multiple output formats
Export asjpeg,png, orwebp. -
Seed control
Use a fixed seed to reproduce a result, or-1for random.
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| prompt | Yes | Text prompt describing the image to generate. |
| resolution | No | Output resolution tier: 1k or 2k. Default: 1k. |
| aspect_ratio | No | Output aspect ratio. Default: 1:1. |
| output_format | No | jpeg, png, or webp. Default: jpeg. |
| seed | No | Random seed. Use -1 for a random seed. |
Pricing
1k: $0.010 per image.2k: $0.040 per image.
How to Use
- Write a prompt — Describe the subject, composition, background, lighting, and style in full sentences.
- Choose resolution and aspect ratio (optional).
- Submit — Retrieve the finished image from the result.

Task Submission Parameters
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prompt | string | Yes | - | The positive prompt for the generation. A full scene caption (framing, subject, background, lighting) works best. | |
| aspect_ratio | string | No | 1:1 | 1:1, 1:2, 2:1, 1:3, 3:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 4:5, 5:4, 9:16, 16:9, 9:21, 21:9 | The aspect ratio of the generated image. |
| resolution | string | No | 1k | 1k, 2k | Total output resolution tier: 1k (~1 megapixel) or 2k (~4 megapixels). |
| output_format | string | No | jpeg | jpeg, png, webp | The format of the output image. |
| seed | integer | No | - | - | The random seed to use for the generation. -1 means a random seed will be used. |
| enable_sync_mode | boolean | No | false | - | If set to `true`, the request attempts to wait for the generated result and return outputs in the same response. If the result is not ready within the sync wait window, the API can return a timeout body while the task continues processing. This option is only available via the API and is supported only by some models. |
| enable_base64_output | boolean | No | false | - | If set to `true`, the prediction's `output` strings are returned as **naked base64** (no `data:<mime>;base64,` prefix). When `false` (default), outputs are returned as URLs pointing to our CDN. |
Response Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| code | integer | HTTP status code (e.g., 200 for success) |
| message | string | Status message (e.g., “success”) |
| data.id | string | Unique identifier for the prediction, Task Id |
| data.model | string | Model ID used for the prediction |
| data.outputs | array | Output values, usually URL strings; some models return text strings or structured result objects (empty when status is not completed) |
| data.urls | object | Object containing related API endpoints |
| data.status | string | Task status. completed is successful; failed, cancelled, timeout, and deleted are failure terminal statuses. |
| data.created_at | string | ISO timestamp of when the request was created (e.g., “2023-04-01T12:34:56.789Z”) |
| data.error | string | Error message (empty if no error occurred) |
| data.timings | object | Object containing timing details |
| data.timings.inference | integer | Inference time in milliseconds |
