Text to Image
Type a prompt, get a publication-ready image. WaveSpeed delivers the fastest text-to-image generation on the market — powered by FLUX, Seedream, Z-Image, Nano Banana, and every major model, all in one place.
How Text to Image Works on WaveSpeed
From prompt to pixel in three steps. Sub-second generation on optimized models, zero cold starts.
Step 1: Write Your Prompt
Describe the image you want. Be as specific or as open as you like:
| Prompt Style | Example |
|---|---|
| Detailed | "A photorealistic portrait of a woman with freckles, soft golden hour lighting, shallow depth of field, Canon 85mm lens look" |
| Minimal | "Red fox in snow" |
| Style-Directed | "Cyberpunk street market, anime style, neon reflections on wet pavement, high detail" |
| Negative Prompting | Prompt: "Mountain landscape at sunrise" + Negative: "people, text, watermark, blurry" |
Step 2: Pick Your Model
WaveSpeed hosts every leading text-to-image model. Each excels in different areas:
| Model | Strength | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| FLUX.1 (Black Forest) | Rich style control, high fidelity, LoRA support | Turbo |
| Seedream V4 (ByteDance) | Superior aesthetics, sharp detail, text rendering | Fast |
| Z-Image Base (WaveSpeed) | 6B parameters, full CFG, negative prompting, fine-tuning | Fast |
| Z-Image Turbo (WaveSpeed) | Photorealistic output in sub-second time | Turbo |
| Nano Banana Pro (Google) | 4K-capable, image editing + generation in one model | Fast |
| Stable Diffusion XL | Open-source flexibility, wide community ecosystem | Fast |
Step 3: Generate, Iterate, Ship
Click generate or call the API. WaveSpeed's inference pipeline — optimized with kernel fusion, DiT caching, and latency-first scheduling — returns your image in milliseconds to seconds. Adjust your prompt, try a different model, or batch-generate 100 variations. All in one session.
