FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo Quality, Generation Time & Price Analysis

FalFal
Family FLUX
ELO 1165.61

Analysis of the FLUX.2 [dev] Turbo model by Fal and comparison to other image models across key metrics including quality, generation time, and price.

For further details, see our methodology page.

Artificial Analysis Image Arena Quality ELO

ELO score in Artificial Analysis Image Arena (relative metric of image generation quality), Higher is better

Relative ELO score of the models as determined by millions of responses from users in Artificial Analysis' Image Arena.

API Generation Time

Generation time: Seconds to generate 1 image, Lower is better

Median time the provider takes to generate an image over the past 14 days of measurements. This includes downloading the image from the provider where a URL is provided rather than an image response.

API Price

Price: USD per 1000 image generations, Lower is better

Price per 1k images generated by the model. For detail on how we calculate price per image for providers price based on inference time or steps, see our methodology page.
