( Not my Model )

https://bfl.ai/announcements/flux-1-krea-dev

The BFL model garden just got an exciting update: We are proud to release FLUX.1 Krea [dev] , developed in collaboration with Krea AI . FLUX.1 Krea [dev] is a new state-of-the-art open-weights model for text-to-image generation that overcomes the oversaturated 'AI look' to achieve new levels of photorealism with its distinctive aesthetic approach.

An ‘Opinionated’ Text-to-Image Model

FLUX.1 Krea [dev] is the open weights version of Krea 1 , offering strong performance with highly distinctive aesthetics and exceptional realism. It has been trained with the goal to generate more realistic and diverse images that do not contain oversaturated textures, a known issue in text-to-image generation. Due to these properties, we call FLUX.1 Krea [dev] ‘opinionated’ - a text-to-image model that offers its users pleasant surprises in the form of diverse, visually interesting images.

Despite its idiosyncrasies, FLUX.1 Krea [dev] outperforms previous open text-to-image models and is on par with closed solutions like FLUX1.1 [pro] in human preference assessments. Moreover it is architecturally compatible with the FLUX.1 [dev] ecosystem and serves as a flexible base model for customization for down-stream applications.

The weights of FLUX.1 Krea [dev] are now available in the BFL HuggingFace repository . Commercial Licenses can are available in the BFL Licensing Portal . Our partners FAL , Replicate , Runware , DataCrunch and TogetherAI provide API endpoints for easy integration.

Key Features of FLUX.1 Krea [dev]

The key features of our most recent open-weights text-to-image model are

• State-of-the-art open text-to-image generation

• Highly distinctive aesthetics that overcome the common "AI look" problem

• Exceptional realism and image quality

• Enhanced flexibility for customization

• Compatibility with the FLUX.1 [dev] architecture and ecosystem

Collaborative Model Development

This joint project between BFL and Krea demonstrates the value of collaborative model development between foundation model and applied AI labs. By providing a specialized and flexible base model tailored for down-stream finetuning, we helped Krea to achieve previously unfeasible results.

FLUX.1 Krea [dev] showcases how targeted collaboration between foundation model developers and application-focused teams can push the boundaries of open AI image generation.
