Alibaba Qwen Image 2.1 Turbo
Alibaba Qwen's hosted Turbo tier of the Qwen Image 2.1 family, an 8-step checkpoint that generates from a prompt and edits or composes from up to 10 reference images at a low flat price. It can rewrite the prompt with an LLM before generating.
Qwen Image 2.1 Turbo is a cloud image-generation model built by Alibaba. It generates images from a text prompt, and can take reference images to guide style or composition (image-to-image). It outputs up to 2K across 14 aspect ratios. Images can be saved as PNG, JPEG, and WebP. It runs through Runware and OpenRouter using your own API key, from about $0.0141 per image.
