JSON2VIDEO Documentation Flux
<!-- TODO: expand -->Flux is a family of high-quality image generation models from Black Forest Labs. JSON2Video supports several Flux variants through partner platforms (Fal, Replicate, and direct Black Forest Labs API access).
When to use Flux
- Photorealistic image generation with strong prompt adherence.
- Typography and text-in-image rendering (Flux handles text far better than most models).
- A balanced cost/quality tradeoff between SDXL and the top commercial models.
Flux variants
| Variant | Use case |
|---|---|
flux-schnell |
Fastest, lowest cost. Good for thumbnails and quick iterations. |
flux-dev |
Mid-tier quality, slower than Schnell. Best for non-commercial use. |
flux-pro |
Highest quality, slowest, highest cost. Best for hero shots. |
The exact set of available variants depends on which provider is currently hosting them. Check the live AI models catalog for the up-to-date list.
