Whether you're a professional creator or just starting with AI image generation, FLUX.1 Tools offers a powerful yet accessible platform for bringing your creative visions to life.
What is FLUX.1 Tools?
FLUX.1 Tools introduces four cutting-edge functionalities that expand the creative potential of the base FLUX.1 model. Designed to cater to both researchers and creative professionals, the suite provides intuitive tools for image editing, structural conditioning, and image variation generation. Here’s what’s included:
- FLUX.1 Fill: Advanced inpainting and outpainting for seamless image edits and extensions.
- FLUX.1 Depth: Structural guidance using depth maps for precise image transformations.
- FLUX.1 Canny: Edge-based conditioning for fine-tuned retexturing and composition adjustments.
- FLUX.1 Redux: A revolutionary adapter for creating image variations and restyling.
Each of these tools is available as an open-access model under the FLUX.1 [dev] series, while advanced capabilities can be accessed through the FLUX.1 [pro] version in the BFL API. Now, with MimicPC, these Flux.1 tools are accessible to everyone online via ComfyUI V0.3.1, eliminating traditional barriers like hardware limitations.
1. FLUX.1 Fill: Inpainting and Outpainting Redefined
FLUX.1 Fill represents a leap forward in image editing. Its inpainting capabilities surpass industry giants like Ideogram 2.0, seamlessly blending edits into existing images. Beyond that, its outpainting feature lets users expand images beyond their original frames with stunning natural integration.
Benchmarks show FLUX.1 Fill outperforming competitors, with the [pro] variant setting a new gold standard. For the research community, the [dev] version offers open weights and inference code, making it a versatile tool for experimentation.
Additionally, with FLUX.1 Fill's outpainting feature, users can seamlessly expand their images beyond the original boundaries, creating naturally extended compositions that look like they were always part of the original image.
Flux.1 Fill [pro] sets a new benchmark in inpainting, outperforming all other competing methods and establishing itself as the leading model in the field
2. FLUX.1 Depth and FLUX.1 Canny: Structural Conditioning
Using depth maps and canny edge detection, FLUX.1 Depth and FLUX.1 Canny allow creators to maintain structural integrity while transforming images. From subtle retexturing to significant compositional adjustments, these tools give users fine control over the creative process.
- FLUX.1 Depth shines in depth-aware tasks, delivering higher output diversity and consistency than proprietary models like MidJourney ReTexture.
- FLUX.1 Canny is perfect for edge-based conditioning, achieving best-in-class results for structure preservation.
Both systems employ advanced mapping algorithms to maintain structural fidelity while facilitating text-guided modifications, ensuring precise control over transformation processes. Both tools are available in full and lightweight LoRA versions, catering to developers and professionals alike.
3. FLUX.1 Redux: Mastering Image Variations and Restyling
FLUX.1 Redux represents a significant advancement in image manipulation technology, functioning as a sophisticated adapter system compatible with all FLUX.1 base models. This innovative tool demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in image variation generation, as validated by comprehensive benchmark testing.
- Precision Image Refinement: Generates nuanced variations of input images while maintaining essential characteristics
- Intelligent Restyling: Combines image inputs with text prompts for directed transformations
- Seamless Workflow Integration: Functions as an integral component in complex image processing pipelines
The feature is particularly impactful when paired with FLUX1.1 [pro] Ultra, delivering 4-megapixel outputs with flexible aspect ratios—perfect for high-quality production.
