What does Flux Kontext Max do?

It applies natural-language edits to an uploaded image, with an emphasis on preserving context and delivering the highest-quality Kontext workflow.

Does Flux Kontext Max require an image?

The provider can generate from text, but this Made page is intentionally configured for its reference-based editing use case and requires one source image.

How do I keep most of the image unchanged?

Describe one main change and explicitly list the subject identity, framing, lighting, materials, and objects that must stay fixed.

What format does Made return?

The current Made workflow is configured for PNG output.

Is this a replacement for manual masking?

No. It is faster for instruction-based edits, but exact edges, brand assets, and pixel-level composites still benefit from manual masking.

How does Max differ from Kontext Pro?

Max is positioned for the strongest edit quality and prompt handling; Pro is the lower-cost option when faster iteration is the priority.

Where Flux Kontext Max fits best

Best uses

Product color, material, and background changes
Portrait wardrobe or environment edits
Adding one controlled object to an existing scene
Edits where source composition and identity matter

Limits to know

Even a targeted prompt can subtly change an unmentioned texture, reflection, facial detail, or object position.
Pixel-perfect masks, exact brand graphics, and production retouching still need a manual image editor.
