Remember it’s the model that matters, not the platform.
Flux Kontext runs on several sites, like

• Replicate – web playground & API

• Fal.ai – fast hosted endpoint

• Playground.bfl.ai – first-party demo from Black Forest Labs

• OpenArt.ai – community gallery + workflows

• Freepik.com – polished editor we’ll use today

We will use Freepik due to its clean UI, regular model updates, trusted platform and built-in upscaler, and side-by-side comparisons all accessible in one tab.

What you need

• A high-resolution scan or phone photo

• Freepik account (10 Free images a day)

• A few AI credits (one job ≈ 5 6 credits on most services)
