Introduction
FLUX.2 [pro] Edit runs Black Forest Labs' FLUX.2 [pro] on images you already have. It accepts one to three sources, applies the change you describe, and returns 1k or 2k in the source shape or one of nine shapes.

Key features
Multi-reference composites
Combine a person, a product and a place from separate photos. In our headphone ad the face, hair and cardigan and the headphones' design stayed as in the sources.
Scene and light changes
Swap the setting or relight a photo while the subject stays put. Our sunny street became a rainy neon night with raindrops on the blazer.
Text added in the edit
Add a headline to the picture in the same step. Ours was spelled as quoted.

Pricing
Prices are in credits, the same credits you use on the website (1 credit = $0.01). The hold is taken when the task is accepted and settled to the actual charge when it finishes; failed tasks are refunded.
| Option | Credits per image | ≈ USD |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 8.67 | $0.087 |
Each task is rounded up to whole credits, so one run at the lowest tier costs 9 credits per image ($0.09).
For an exact number before you run, send the same body to POST /jobs/quote.
Use cases
Advertisements from separate assets
Bring a model photo, a product shot and a location together into one visual.
Mood variations
Show the same scene by day, at night or in rain for a client choosing a direction.
Product and place restyling
Change the background, light or style of a product, a room or a clothed portrait.
Prompt guide & pro tips
Number the sources
Say image 1 is the person, image 2 the product, image 3 the place, in upload order.
Name what must stay
After the change, list the face, outfit, pose or design that has to remain exactly as it was.
Change one thing at a time
A single clear change keeps the rest of the frame stable; chain edits instead of packing several into one.
Allow time
Edits took 45 to 120 seconds in our tests.
Keep it clothed and safe for work
This model is strict on people, so use it for products, places and clothed portraits.
API quick start
Call the FLUX.2 Pro API in three steps
- Create an API key. Sign in to PopNow and create a key in the API console. Keys start with sk-popnow- and use the same credits as the website.
- Send the request. POST /jobs/createTask with model black-forest-labs/flux-2-pro/edit and an input object that follows the parameter table. The response returns a task ID straight away.
- Get the result. Poll GET /jobs/recordInfo with the task ID, or pass a callBackUrl and we post the result to it. Download the output links when the task succeeds.
# 1. Create the task. Keep the Idempotency-Key if you retry after a network error.
export IDEMPOTENCY_KEY="$(uuidgen)"
curl -X POST https://api.popnow.ai/api/v1/jobs/createTask \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $POPNOW_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Idempotency-Key: $IDEMPOTENCY_KEY" \
-d '{
"model": "black-forest-labs/flux-2-pro/edit",
"input": {
"prompt": "A ceramic teapot on a linen cloth, soft window light, muted palette",
"image_urls": [
"https://media.popnow.ai/influencer/examples/marco.webp"
],
"aspect_ratio": "auto",
"resolution": "1k"
}
}'
# 2. Copy data.taskId from the response, then poll until state is succeeded, failed, canceled or expired.
TASK_ID="TASK_ID_FROM_RESPONSE"
curl "https://api.popnow.ai/api/v1/jobs/recordInfo?taskId=$TASK_ID" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $POPNOW_API_KEY"Replace the prompt and any links with your own. The API tab has the response, polling and callback reference.
FLUX.2 Pro API questions
How much does the FLUX.2 Pro API cost?
FLUX.2 Pro starts at 9 credits ($0.09) per image with Edit Image, its cheapest task. Credits are the same as on the website (1 credit = $0.01), new accounts get 30 free credits, and failed tasks are refunded.
What is the model name for FLUX.2 Pro in the API?
Put black-forest-labs/flux-2-pro/text-to-image for Create Image; black-forest-labs/flux-2-pro/edit for Edit Image in the model field of POST /jobs/createTask.
What is FLUX.2 [pro]?
It is the production-grade model in Black Forest Labs' second FLUX generation, released on 25 November 2025, built to balance quality and speed. Black Forest Labs sped it up roughly twofold in March 2026.
Can it write text into images?
Yes. Our poster test quoted a headline and a small line and both came back spelled exactly as written, in the typeface style the prompt described. Quote the words and say where they sit.
Does it follow colour codes?
Yes. Hex codes written in the prompt steer the palette. In our poster test a dusk teal and a copper horizon band came out in the tones we specified.
How many reference images can I use?
One to three in an edit. Say what each one contributes: image 1 is the person, image 2 the product, image 3 the place.
Does the seed repeat an image?
A fixed seed is for comparing prompts side by side; it does not promise an identical result.
What are the limits of the FLUX.2 Pro API?
Resolutions: 1K · 2K; Aspect ratios: auto · 1:1 · 16:9 · 9:16 · 4:3 · 3:4 +4; Reference images: 3; Prompt length (characters): 5,000; Largest upload: 10 MB. Requests outside these limits are rejected before anything is charged.
Can I try FLUX.2 Pro without writing code?
Yes. The Playground runs FLUX.2 Pro on your PopNow credits, needs no API key, and shows the matching code for every run.
