New release: Outpainting (expand any image to any aspect ratio). Most outpainting struggles at boundaries: light breaks, textures drift, seams appear. FLUX Outpainting fixes this at the model level. Give it an image + canvas geometry and get a coherent scene extension with preserved structure and continuity. Available via the BFL API: https://t.co/V5mOscqRxk Try the demo:
🤏 smol update: Outpainting in fast mode. Up to 5x faster, built for iterating on designs before switching to high mode for quality. https://t.co/RT1wqTZlaO
Context
FLUX Outpainting creates new image content beyond an existing picture's edges. Black Forest Labs' documentation describes supplying an image, the target canvas dimensions and optionally its position on that canvas. The model fills the additional area with an extension of the scene, making it useful when a composition needs a different aspect ratio.
The May 14, 2026 announcement thread later added fast mode on June 11, with a claimed speedup of up to five times. The documented tradeoff is lower possible fidelity in the generated region; high mode prioritizes detail and consistency with complex source content.
