Flux
- Open source: free when run locally
- Excellent at rendering text inside images
- API available
- Running it locally requires a powerful GPU
- Less artistic polish than Midjourney
Krea
- Real-time generation with under 50ms latency, so you see changes instantly as you type
- Complete integrated suite: images, video, 3D, 22K upscaling, generative editing and LoRA training in one subscription
- Access to 64+ models including Flux, Ideogram, Kling, Runway, Veo 3 and its own open-source Krea 2 model
- The compute-unit system can be confusing for users who would rather not calculate cost per generation
- Less mature API than alternatives such as Replicate or Stability AI, with limited docs for production integrations
