Ultra-fast FLUX.1 [dev] endpoint with LoRA support for high-quality image generation, personalization, and brand/style adaptation. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.

Features

FLUX Dev LoRA Ultra Fast is a high-speed image generation and editing model that supports applying up to three LoRAs in a single run. It’s built for rapid iteration: generate new images from a prompt, or guide results with an input image (image-to-image) and an optional mask for localized edits. With LoRA stacking, you can quickly dial in style, character identity, or product aesthetics while keeping latency and cost low.

Key capabilities

  • Text-to-image generation with fast turnaround
  • Image-to-image generation for guided edits and variations
  • Masked editing (inpainting-style) for localized changes
  • LoRA support: add up to 3 LoRAs per run
  • Adjustable strength for how strongly the input image is preserved
  • Custom output size, seed control, and standard image formats

Use cases

  • Rapid style exploration using one or more LoRAs (photoreal, illustration, anime, etc.)
  • Character consistency by stacking identity + style LoRAs
  • Product mockups: swap materials/colors and keep composition stable
  • Portrait retouching or wardrobe/background changes with a mask
  • High-volume generation for ads, thumbnails, and creative testing

Inputs

  • prompt (required): what to generate or how to edit
  • image (optional): source image for image-to-image
  • mask_image (optional): edit region mask (for localized edits)
  • loras (optional): list of LoRA items (up to 3)

Parameters

  • strength: how much to follow the input image (higher = more change; lower = more preservation)
  • loras[].path: LoRA identifier (owner/model) or a public.safetensors URL
  • loras[].scale: LoRA weight (typical range ~0.6–1.2 depending on LoRA)
  • width / height: output size
  • num_inference_steps: sampling steps
  • guidance_scale: prompt adherence strength
  • num_images: number of images to generate per run
  • seed: random seed (-1 for random; set for reproducible results)
  • output_format: jpeg / png / webp, etc.
  • enable_base64_output: return BASE64 instead of URL (API only)

Prompting tips

  • If you’re stacking LoRAs, keep the base prompt clean and let LoRAs do the heavy lifting.
  • For edits, describe the change explicitly and keep “what stays the same” implicit via the input image.
  • For text rendering in images, keep on-image text short and specify placement/material.

Example prompts

  • Super realism, ultra high-resolution photograph, cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, shot on a Sony A7III, natural skin texture, sharp eyes, soft bokeh background.
  • Edit: change the outfit to a light gray sweater and gold thin-rimmed glasses, keep the same face and hairstyle, realistic studio lighting.

Request Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultRangeDescription
promptstringYes-The positive prompt for the generation.
imagestringNo--
mask_imagestringNo-The mask image tells the model where to generate new pixels (white) and where to preserve the original image (black). It acts as a stencil or guide for targeted image editing.
strengthnumberNo0.80.01 ~ 1Strength indicates extent to transform the reference image.
lorasarray<object>No0 ~ 3 itemsList of LoRAs to apply (max 3).
sizestringNo1024*1024-The size of the generated media in pixels (width*height).
num_inference_stepsintegerNo281 ~ 50The number of inference steps to perform.
guidance_scalenumberNo3.50 ~ 20The guidance scale to use for the generation.
num_imagesintegerNo11 ~ 4The number of images to generate.
seedintegerNo-1-The random seed to use for the generation. -1 means a random seed will be used.
output_formatstringNojpegjpeg, png, webpThe format of the output image.
enable_base64_outputbooleanNofalse-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.
