Flux Kontext Max

Flux Kontext Max provides prompt-only generation and one-image editing on Kyeo for a fixed 8 credits. It exposes the same controls as Pro: six ratios in generation, one image in editing, JPEG or PNG, translation, prompt enhancement, safety tolerance, and a watermark identifier.

What it does best
Kyeo uses upstream model `flux-kontext-max` for prompt-only generation and one-image editing through a dedicated Kontext endpoint. It exposes the same visible parameters as Pro but costs 8 rather than 4 credits. BFL recommends FLUX.2 for new projects, so this page presents Max as available rather than current-generation.

Any difference in detail, repeatability, or rework should be measured against Pro under the same conditions.

Why use it on Kyeo AI
Kyeo states the one-image limit, format, translation, prompt enhancement, safety tolerance, watermark identifier, and fixed 8-credit charge before submission. Users can evaluate those facts without treating the Max name as a quality score.

Selection guide

Use these decision points when choosing a model.

1
Decide whether a legacy model is acceptable

Include FLUX.2 in the comparison when a project requires BFL's current recommendation. Test Max when an existing workflow depends on Kontext or its one-image editing path is specifically relevant.

2
Test the Max positioning with the same input

Keep the image, reviewed English prompt, format, translation, and prompt-enhancement settings fixed when comparing it with Pro.

3
Apply the mode-specific safety range

Generation accepts 0–6; editing accepts only 0, 1, or 2. Safety tolerance does not guarantee legality, compliance, suitability for commercial use, or acceptance by the upstream service.

Practical usage insights

Practical observations based on real creative workflows.

The Max name and higher price are not quality evidence

Kyeo exposes the same controls for Max and Pro. The confirmed differences are the upstream model ID and a fixed charge of 8 rather than 4 credits; complex-scene performance and revision count require controlled testing.

A shared form hides an editing constraint

This page states the restriction; users still need to avoid 3–6 until the functional range is corrected.

Capabilities

Prompt-only generation and one-image editing

Without an upload, Kyeo uses generation mode. Uploading one JPG, PNG, or WebP passes it as `inputImage` to `flux-kontext-max`. The current file limit is 10 MB.

Mode-dependent aspect-ratio behavior

Generation shows 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, and 9:16. Kyeo hides `aspectRatio` after an upload.

Prompt and output helpers

Kyeo exposes `enableTranslation`, `promptUpsampling`, JPEG or PNG, and `watermark`. The watermark field is an identifier, not a guarantee that a visible mark will appear.

Safety tolerance is not a compliance switch

Generation accepts 0–6; editing accepts only 0–2. Higher values mean more permissive moderation.

Use cases

Controlled tests of complex scene edits

Use a one-image task with several objects, a background change, or detailed constraints and run it against Pro under the same settings. Record the actual outputs and retries rather than assuming Max will perform better.

Tests of text changes inside an image

BFL lists text editing as a Kontext capability. It can be evaluated on signs, labels, or posters.

Character or scene variation samples

Use one image to test a character, object, or scene change. Identity, object consistency, and unchanged regions must be verified per result.

Prompt tips

Choose translation before submitting non-English text

Turn on `enableTranslation` for a non-English brief; if you already have reviewed English instructions, turn it off to avoid another rewrite.

Name both the change and the constraints

Specify the object, position, or text to replace and the subject, composition, color, or style to preserve. Clear instructions aid review but do not guarantee a strictly local edit.

Hold helper settings constant against Pro

Both `enableTranslation` and `promptUpsampling` alter the effective prompt. Record and match their states in a Max/Pro comparison so the model is the variable being tested.

Strengths

One Kyeo page supports prompt-only generation and one-image editing.
JPEG or PNG, translation, prompt enhancement, safety tolerance, and a watermark identifier are visible controls.
Both modes cost a fixed 8 credits, so the Kyeo charge is known before submission.
Inputs and controls closely match Pro, supporting a controlled comparison.

Limitations

BFL labels FLUX.1 Kontext [max] as previous-generation and recommends FLUX.2 for new projects.
Kyeo accepts one input image; the Max name does not add multi-image or batch output.
Automatic translation and prompt enhancement can both change the original wording.
Kyeo displays safety values from 0 to 6, but upstream interface limits editing to 0–2. Result links also expire after 14 days.

Credit usage

8 credits per request

Kyeo currently charges a fixed 8 credits for prompt-only generation and one-image editing.

Budget tip

Before batch generation, run an A/B test with the same assets across the current model and alternatives to validate quality and avoid wasting credits.

FAQ

Related models

Compare these similar candidates before deciding.

Flux Kontext Pro

Flux Kontext Pro provides prompt-only generation and one-image editing on Kyeo for a fixed 4 credits. Generation offers six aspect ratios. Uploading one image switches to editing, where Kyeo hides the ratio control and sends no ratio by default. The page also exposes JPEG or PNG, automatic translation, prompt enhancement, safety tolerance, and a watermark identifier.

Flux 2 Pro

Flux 2 Pro on Kyeo supports text-to-image and image editing. A request without an upload uses `flux-2/pro-text-to-image`; attaching one to eight images switches to `flux-2/pro-image-to-image`. Both routes offer seven fixed aspect ratios and 1K/2K, currently priced at 5/7 credits.

GPT Image 2

GPT Image 2 supports text-to-image generation and reference-image editing on Kyeo AI. Kyeo charges by output resolution: 1K costs 3 credits, 2K costs 5, and 4K costs 8.

Source notes

Kyeo's current configuration and dedicated Flux Kontext workflow define the available scope on this page; BFL now labels FLUX.1 Kontext [max] and [pro] as previous-generation models and recommends FLUX.2 for new projects. Safety tolerance is 0–6 for generation but only 0–2 for editing; Kyeo displays 0–6 in both modes, so editing requests must not use 3–6.

Upstream interface documentation: Generate or Edit Image
Platform

The upstream Kontext endpoint describes `flux-kontext-max` as an enhanced option for complex scenes and documents controls for English prompts, translation, format, prompt enhancement, safety tolerance, and watermarking.

Upstream interface documentation: Flux Kontext Quickstart
Platform

Upstream interface currently specifies safety tolerance of 0–6 for generation and 0–2 for editing, and requires translation for non-English prompts.
