#Use it in Studio
Step 1: Open Create Image
In Studio, open Create Image. Sign in when the Studio asks, because every generation needs an account.
Step 2: Choose FLUX 2 Max
Open the model picker, which groups models by maker, and choose FLUX 2 Max.
Step 3: Write your prompt
Describe the image. FLUX 2 Max works from text only, so there is no reference image to attach.
Step 4: Set the output
Choose an aspect ratio and Count from 1 to 4.
Step 5: Check the price and generate
The Studio shows the credit price for your settings. It is the same price the server charges. Results appear as cards and are saved to your Library.
#Limits
- You need to be signed in to generate. FLUX 2 Max is available on every plan, including Free; credits are the limit.
- No reference image. If you attach one, the Studio says "FLUX 2 Max can't use a reference image — remove it or pick another model".
- If a generation fails, the credits are refunded. The Studio does not run a different model in its place.
