Kontext [Dev] is part of the AI image tool set called FLUX.1 Kontext by Black Forest Labs. With it, you can use it to make or change pictures using text or other images.
It's an open weight 12B model you can tinker with if you’re into custom setups. It uses rectified flow for image editing based on text commands. This model enables users to alter existing images while preserving references for characters, styles, and objects without the need for finetuning, and it facilitates consistent multi-step edits with minimal visual discrepancies.
It has been trained using guidance distillation to enhance efficiency and is accessible with open weights to aid research and creative endeavors.
Licenses for FLUX models depend on the version and how you use it. The free "dev" versions are only for research and testing, not for money-making or production. You can download, tweak, and share them but can't use them in real-world apps without permission.
Black Forest Labs sells a paid license for running it in production. It comes with written terms. Some versions may have extra rules like use limits, rule-following stuff or banned uses. Always check the exact version’s license before you use it.
