Designed for agents.
FLUX 3 Image is natively trained to understand image layout and composition. An agent can use the model to easily create well-composed images with just a text prompt.

Frequently asked questions
What is FLUX 3 Image?
FLUX 3 is Black Forest Labs' multimodal model for video, audio, images and actions. FLUX 3 Image is the part that generates and edits images. You place every element on a canvas with a bounding box, then edit the finished image one box at a time.
How do bounding boxes work?
Drag out a box for every element that matters and describe what goes in it. Then give the scene one line that ties the elements together, and FLUX 3 renders it with every element inside its box. Whatever aspect ratio you pick, the canvas is a 0 to 1000 grid on both axes, and each box is written as [y_min, x_min, y_max, x_max].
What does a layout prompt look like?
It has two parts. A global caption describes the whole image in one paragraph. An element table follows it, a JSON array with one row per element, and each row carries an id, a bounding box and a description. The caption cites every element by its id, like animal_1, where that element first appears.
Do I have to draw every box myself?
No. Give the agent one line and an aspect ratio, and an LLM plans the layout for you. It writes a caption and an element table, with a box and a semantic id for everything that matters. Every box stays editable, so move the ones you don't like and FLUX 3 generates inside the rest as the agent placed them.
Can I edit an image I already made?
Yes, and you can make several targeted edits at once. Each box can be re-described, replaced with something else or moved. Everything you didn't touch stays exactly where it was, so an image holds together across one round of edits after another.
Does FLUX 3 change the boxes I draw?
No. A prompt upsampler turns your short request into the dense caption FLUX 3 was trained on. It may write the caption around your boxes and suggest more elements, but every box you drew reaches the model verbatim, with the same id and the same coordinates. Anything the upsampler adds survives only if the caption refers to it.
What kinds of images suit bounding boxes?
Compositions with many parts in strict relationships. Type set around a photograph, collages and panel grids, editorial spreads, or a crowded scene where every face has its place.
How can I try FLUX 3 Image?
Draw the boxes by hand in the Playground, or send a layout prompt to FLUX 3 on the BFL API. Open the Playground
