Remix with In- and Outpainting: Black Forest Labs Flux Tools Make Generative AI Easier to Use

[13:55 Fri,22.November 2024 by Rudi Schmidts]

The German AI company Black Forest Labs has released new Flux Tools, designed to make their text-to-image model FLUX.1 more accessible to everyone. The release of the FLUX.1 Tools consists of four distinct features, available as freely accessible models within the FLUX.1[dev] series and in the BFL API as an extension to FLUX.1[pro]:

FLUX.1 Fill:
State-of-the-art inpainting and outpainting models enabling the editing and expansion of real or generated images using text descriptions and binary masks. FLUX.1 Fill introduces advanced inpainting functions that surpass existing tools like Ideogram 2.0 and popular open-source versions such as FLUX-Controlnet-Inpainting by AlimamaCreative. Even text within an image can be modified or replaced while maintaining the original style.

FLUX.1 Depth:
Models trained to preserve structure based on a depth mask extracted from an input image and a text prompt.

FLUX.1 Canny:
Models trained to preserve structure based on extracted edges derived from an input image and a text prompt.

Both variants retain the original image structure through edge or depth masks, enabling users to make text-guided changes while keeping the core composition intact. This is particularly effective for retexturing images.

FLUX.1 Redux:
A model that allows mixing and recreating input images and text prompts. For a given input image, FLUX.1 Redux can reproduce the image with slight variations, refining it as needed.

Each tool is available in the BFL API as a FLUX.1[pro] variant, while freely accessible FLUX.1[dev] versions with inference code and weights are also offered. Additionally, the models can be accessed via web services such as fal.ai, Replicate, Together.ai, Freepik, and krea.ai.
