Full review
FLUX, from Black Forest Labs, is a family of leading image-generation models (FLUX.2, Kontext) available through the BFL Playground and an API, with strong quality, controllability, and in-context editing.
Models are open-weight, making FLUX a favorite for builders, while the Playground offers a no-setup way to test. Pricing is credit-based, and it is more a model/platform than a polished consumer app.
