Name: Riverflow
Version: 2
Also Known As: Riverflow 2.0, Riverflow V2
Licence: Proprietary
Creator: Sourceful Ltd

Riverflow 2 combines image creation and editing in one model. It's released by Sourceful end of Nov 2025 with wider distribution hitting platforms in the beginning of 2026.

It gives realistic results with or without using a product as a guide. The outputs look like pro-level staged photos. It handles complex scenes well and keeps product details accurate.

It’s presented as a high end image model built for image generation and image editing. The system also uses a vision language loop that lets it refine results over multiple steps. It replaces the earlier Riverflow 2 Preview and signals Sourceful’s move into pro level creative tools.

In February 2026 Artificial Analysis reports that Riverflow 2.0 ranked #1 in both Text to Image and Image Editing on the All Listings leaderboard. It placed ahead of tools like GPT Image 1.5, Nano Banana Pro, and FLUX.2 max.

At its core Riverflow 2.0 is made for professional work where accuracy and visual control matter.  Think marketing assets, packaging, editorial work, online stores, and design pipelines. It doesn’t just make images from text. It also lets users edit and adjust existing images with care. You can fix details, change layouts, and clean up visuals without starting over.

The system uses a vision language model to read prompts and user feedback. This helps it adjust images step by step and stay closer to what’s asked. It also runs images through several passes, correcting issues along the way. This cuts down on common visual problems and improves final quality.

The model supports text to image generation with strong detail and realistic output. It works across many aspect ratios and supports high resolution images up to 4K.

It also supports image editing through text instructions. You can swap objects, adjust lighting, change backgrounds, or combine multiple reference images in one edit.

Outputs are positioned as ready for real world use, not just demos. Things like transparent backgrounds and prompt tools help you fine tune results.

There are several versions available. Riverflow 2.0 Pro is the top tier option aimed at professionals. It offers better layout control, higher consistency, and stronger handling of text and references.

There are also Preview versions. The Standard Preview balances quality and cost. The Fast Preview focuses on speed and lower pricing. These preview models are often used through third party platforms and are cheaper than Pro.

Pricing places Riverflow 2.0 on the higher end. It’s listed around $150 per 1,000 images, which is more than many competitors. Pro level APIs show prices that scale with resolution, with higher costs for 4K outputs.

You can use Riverflow 2.0 through Sourceful’s own site and playground for hands on work. It’s also available through APIs on platforms like RunwareAI, Replicate, and OpenRouterAI.
