Generate images with Flux Pro 1.1
Flux Pro 1.1 is the previous generation of Black Forest Labs' high end. It keeps an excellent level on photorealism and classic compositions, slightly below Flux 2 Pro on in-image text and the finest detail, at a somewhat gentler cost. It earns its keep when you already know its look and want it back unchanged: Flux family regulars return to it for its consistency.
Why this model is still here
Flux Pro 1.1 is the high end of Black Forest Labs' first generation. It was the reference model for many workflows before Flux 2 arrived, and it stays in the catalogue for one precise reason: its rendering is known. Anyone who built a prompt library around it gets exactly what they expect, where a newer model reinterprets the same words in its own way.
Technically it holds photorealism and classic compositions very well. It gives ground to Flux 2 Pro on text embedded in the image and on the finest detail, which is exactly what the second generation came to fix.
The case for style consistency
The real argument for Flux Pro 1.1 is constancy. When a series has to stay homogeneous, a collection of product visuals, a run of illustrations for one article, switching model midway breaks the unity even if the new model is better taken alone. Finishing a series with the model that started it is often worth more than gaining a notch of sharpness on the last image.
For a new series, though, there is little reason to start on the previous generation. Flux 2 Pro renders better at comparable cost, and Flux 2 Klein covers the low end better than the first generation ever did.
Comparing without rewriting the prompt
On the canvas the comparison is direct: duplicate the Image node, change the model on the copy, run both. The same prompt goes to Flux Pro 1.1 and to Flux 2 Pro, and the two results sit side by side on the board. That is the only reliable way to decide, because the gap depends heavily on the subject and is not the same on a portrait as on a landscape.
The price of each send appears before you launch, so a two model comparison stays a known cost, with no subscription to sign and no API key to manage.

Frequently asked questions
Should I pick Flux Pro 1.1 or Flux 2 Pro?
Flux 2 Pro for any new series: it renders better, notably on text in the image and on materials. Flux Pro 1.1 keeps its value when a series is already under way with it and has to stay consistent.
Is the rendering really different between the two generations?
Yes, on an identical prompt. The second generation recomposes the scene in its own way, with more detail. That is progress for a new image, and a problem when you need to match the exact look of images already delivered.
How do I compare the two on my own prompt?
Duplicate the Image node in the canvas, change the model on the copy and run both. The results appear side by side, with the price of each send shown before you launch.
How much does an image generated with Flux Pro 1.1 cost?
6 credits per image, about $0.07 (1 credit = $0.012). The exact cost shows on the Generate button before you click, and any failed generation is refunded automatically within seconds.
Can Flux Pro 1.1 edit an existing image?
Flux Pro 1.1 generates from text only. To retouch an existing render, one click creates a pre-wired Flux Kontext node dedicated to editing: both models draw from the same credits.
Can I try Flux Pro 1.1 for free?
Yes: signing up grants trial credits, no credit card required. Enough to test Flux Pro 1.1 in real conditions before deciding on a plan or a top-up.
Do I need to install anything to use Flux Pro 1.1?
No: Flux Pro 1.1 runs server-side, in the browser, mobile included. Imaginode's node canvas wires its renders to the other models (references, camera, styles) with nothing to install.
