What Makes Flux Schnell Special?

Built by the original creators of Stable Diffusion, Flux represents everything they learned - done better

3x Faster Generation

While other AI models need 20-50 steps to generate an image, Flux Schnell produces high-quality results in just 1-4 steps. This isn't a compromise - it's the result of latent adversarial diffusion distillation, a breakthrough technique that maintains quality at dramatically higher speeds.

For you, this means rapid iteration. Test ideas, refine prompts, and explore creative directions without waiting around.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our image generation tool

What is Flux Schnell?

Flux Schnell is a 12 billion parameter AI image generation model from Black Forest Labs, the original creators of Stable Diffusion. 'Schnell' means 'fast' in German - it generates images in just 1-4 steps, making it up to 3x faster than other models. It's optimized for speed over detail.

How many images can I generate for free?

Anonymous users get 5 generations per day, and signed-in users get 30 generations per day at 1024x1024 resolution. Pro users get unlimited generations with access to all Flux models including Dev and Pro variants.

What is Flux Schnell best at?

Flux Schnell excels at rapid prototyping, testing prompts, character concepts, and quick visualizations. It's perfect for exploring creative directions quickly before committing to slower, higher-quality models like Flux Dev or Pro.

How is Flux Schnell different from Flux Dev or Pro?

Flux Schnell is optimized for speed - it's the fastest but with less detail. Flux Dev produces higher quality for portraits and organic subjects but takes longer. Flux Pro offers the highest quality with advanced controls for commercial production. All three come from Black Forest Labs.

Can I use Flux Schnell images commercially?

Flux Schnell uses the Apache 2.0 license, making it free for both personal and commercial use. However, our free tier is for personal use only - upgrade to Pro for commercial rights and unlimited generations.

When should I use a different model?

Use Flux Dev or Pro when you need higher quality details, better text rendering, photorealistic portraits, or final production-ready images. Flux Schnell is best used as a 'draft' model to test ideas quickly before using slower models for final output.

Need More Generations?

Upgrade to Pro for unlimited Flux generations, access to all three Flux models (Schnell, Dev, Pro), commercial usage rights, and priority processing.
