AI Image Generation

From photorealistic assets to stylized art—create high-quality visuals in milliseconds. WaveSpeed unifies state-of-the-art models like FLUX.1 and SDXL into one ultra-fast platform, enabling you to generate, iterate, and integrate AI imagery at production scale.

Comprehensive Image Generation Methods

WaveSpeed provides flexible generation modes to fit any workflow. Whether starting from a text prompt or an existing image, our infrastructure optimizes for lowest latency and highest fidelity.

Text-to-Image

Turn detailed prompts into high-resolution images instantly. Perfect for concept art, marketing visuals, and social media content. Models: FLUX.1-dev, FLUX.1-schnell, SDXL

Image-to-Image

Use a reference image to guide composition, style, or structure. Ideal for refining sketches, style transfer, or creating variations. Models: FLUX.1 Img2Img, SDXL Refiner

Inpainting & Outpainting

Edit specific regions of an image or expand its borders seamlessly. Fix details or change backgrounds without regenerating the whole image. Models: FLUX Fill, SDXL Inpainting

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI Image Generation?
AI Image Generation is the process of creating visual content from text descriptions or reference images using machine learning models. WaveSpeed optimizes this process, allowing you to access top models like FLUX.1 and SDXL with significantly faster speeds and lower costs than traditional cloud providers.
Which models are available for image generation?
We support a wide range of industry-leading models, including the entire FLUX.1 family (dev, schnell, pro), Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL), and various specialized LoRAs for specific styles (anime, photorealism, line art).
Can I use generated images for commercial purposes?
Yes. Images generated on WaveSpeed using models like FLUX.1 and SDXL generally grant you full commercial ownership of the output. However, we recommend checking the specific license terms of individual community models or LoRAs if you are using specialized third-party checkpoints.
How fast is the generation speed?
WaveSpeed is built for performance. Our ParaAttention technology and optimized infrastructure allow for near-instant generation, especially with models like FLUX.1-schnell, making it suitable for real-time applications.
Do you offer an API for developers?
Yes. We provide a robust, scalable REST API that allows you to integrate all our image generation capabilities directly into your apps or websites. Check the View API Docs for detailed endpoints and pricing.
