Flux Kontext Max vs Flux Kontext Pro
Same editing family, two tiers. Both apply natural-language edits to an uploaded image; Max is positioned for the strongest preservation and prompt handling, Pro for cheap fast iteration at exactly half the price.
Both models run in Made, so the prices below are what the Generate button shows — and you can switch between them per generation.

Specs reflect the options Made currently exposes for each model; the controls in the generator are the source of truth.
Choose Flux Kontext Max when…
- The edit is demanding — identity preservation, typography, or fine texture — and quality beats cost.
- You want PNG output and the widest ratio support (14 options).
Choose Flux Kontext Pro when…
- You are iterating: at 4 credits versus 8 credits per image, exploratory rounds cost half as much.
- JPG output is fine for the destination.
The verdict
Iterate on Pro, finish on Max. At these prices, running five Pro drafts plus one Max final costs 28 credits — less than four Max attempts.
Or don't choose: run the same prompt through both and keep the better result — at these prices the experiment costs pennies.
