Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast | Fast Image Editing API

FLUX Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast — wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev/multi-ultra-fast

FLUX.1 Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast is a low-latency, multi-image editing model designed for fast, instruction-based image editing with richer context. Provide up to 4 reference images plus a text instruction, and the model performs controlled edits while using the references to improve consistency across identity, style, and scene—optimized for rapid iteration and production workflows.

Key capabilities

Ultra-fast multi-image contextual editing with up to 4 reference images
Stronger consistency by grounding edits in multiple references (identity, outfit, style, lighting, background)
Supports both local edits and global transformations
Ideal for iterative workflows: quick refinements with minimal drift

Typical use cases

Multi-reference character consistency for portraits and creatives
Product/branding edits using multiple references (logo + label + lighting + packaging)
Background swaps with better subject matching (lighting, shadows, perspective)
Text edits that must follow reference typography and layout
Rapid A/B iteration for marketing assets and creative variations

Pricing

$0.025 per generation.

If you generate multiple outputs in one run, total cost = num_images × $0.025 Example: num_images = 4 → $0.10

Inputs and outputs

Input:

Up to 4 reference images (upload or public URLs)
One edit instruction (prompt)

Output:

One or more edited images (controlled by num_images)

Parameters

prompt: Edit instruction describing what to change and what to preserve
images: Up to 4 reference images
width / height: Output resolution
num_inference_steps: More steps can improve fidelity but increases latency
guidance_scale: Higher values follow the prompt more strongly; too high may over-edit
num_images: Number of variations generated per run
seed: Fixed value for reproducibility; -1 for random
output_format: jpeg or png
enable_base64_output: Return BASE64 instead of a URL (API only)
enable_sync_mode: Wait for generation and return results directly (API only)

Prompting guide

Assign clear roles to references to avoid conflicts:

Template: Use reference 1 for [identity]. Use reference 2 for [outfit/material]. Use reference 3 for [style/lighting]. Use reference 4 for [background/scene]. Keep [must-preserve]. Change [edit request]. Match [lighting/shadows/perspective].

Example prompts

Use reference 1 for face identity and reference 2 for hairstyle. Keep the pose from the base image. Replace the background with a clean studio setup and match shadow direction.
Use reference 1 for the product shape and reference 2 for the label design. Replace the label text with “WaveSpeedAI”, keeping font style, perspective, and print texture consistent.
Use reference 3 as the style guide (soft illustration look) and reference 4 for lighting mood (sunset). Preserve identity from reference 1 and keep composition unchanged.

Best practices

Use high-quality references with clear subjects and minimal occlusion.
Give each reference a purpose (identity vs. style vs. scene) for more reliable results.
Iterate with one change per run for tighter control.
Fix seed for stable comparisons across prompt variants.

Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev/multi-ultra-fast with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to completed, then read the output URL from data.outputs[0]. Examples for Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast below.

HTTP example

# Submit the prediction
curl -X POST "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev/multi-ultra-fast" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
    "num_inference_steps": 28,
    "guidance_scale": 2.5,
    "num_images": 1,
    "seed": -1,
    "output_format": "jpeg",
    "enable_base64_output": false,
    "enable_sync_mode": false
}'

# Response includes a prediction id. Poll for the result:
curl -X GET "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{request_id}/result" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY"

# When status is "completed", read the output from data.outputs[0].

Node.js example

// npm install wavespeed
const WaveSpeed = require('wavespeed');

const client = new WaveSpeed(); // reads WAVESPEED_API_KEY from env

const result = await client.run("wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev/multi-ultra-fast", {
        "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
        "num_inference_steps": 28,
        "guidance_scale": 2.5,
        "num_images": 1,
        "seed": -1,
        "output_format": "jpeg",
        "enable_base64_output": false,
        "enable_sync_mode": false
});

console.log(result.outputs[0]); // → URL of the generated output

Python example

# pip install wavespeed
import wavespeed

output = wavespeed.run(
    "wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev/multi-ultra-fast",
    {
    "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",

Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast API?

Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast is a WaveSpeedAI model for image editing, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Experimental FLUX.1 Kontext [dev] - Multi-Ultra-Fast endpoint with native multi-image handling for batch and multi-view inputs. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev-multi-ultra-fast.

How much does Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast cost per run?

Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast starts at $0.025 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `images`, `size`, `seed`, `guidance_scale`, `num_inference_steps`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/flux-kontext-dev-multi-ultra-fast.

How long does Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast take to generate?

Average end-to-end generation time on WaveSpeedAI is around 10 seconds per request — measured across recent runs. Queue time scales with global demand; live status is visible in the prediction record.

Can I use Flux Kontext Dev Multi Ultra Fast outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (WaveSpeedAI). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
