fal and Black Forest Labs release FLUX 3 Max video model with 75% launch discount
Overview
fal Research and Black Forest Labs release FLUX 3 Max, a post-trained image-to-video model that fal says ties for first on independent quality benchmarks. fal says it generates a 10-second 720/768p video in about 12 seconds.
For the first three weeks, fal sells it 75% off, which fal says makes it the most affordable frontier video model at its quality level.
Black Forest Labs says the model is 22 times faster than Seedance 2.5 at the same quality, and that fal adapted and optimized FLUX 3 to create the Max version. Design Arena ranks FLUX 3 Max #6 on its Video and Image-to-Video leaderboards. Artificial Analysis ranks it #2 on its AA-Video-I2V v1.1 benchmark and #4 on AA-Video-T2V v2.1, and says fal prices it at $10.20 per minute against $17.40 per minute for FLUX 3, or $2.55 per minute during the discount.
