Pricing — 1 offering(s)
About this offering: Krea's speed-optimised, open-weights distillation of Krea 2 (a 12-billion-parameter diffusion transformer), released 2026-06-22. It's billed per megapixel of output on fal, so a 1-megapixel image costs about $0.008. The weights are under the Krea 2 Community License, which requires anyone deploying the model to add content filtering or an equivalent review step.

How Krea-2-Turbo rates across core capability dimensions, with the task-level evidence behind each rating.
fal.ai's own example generation completed in ~0.48s; marketed explicitly as the speed-optimized variant of Krea 2.
fal.ai states it 'preserves its aesthetic range for rapid ideation' relative to the full Krea 2 model — a retained-quality claim, not an independently verified score.
No independent or vendor-specific claim found for this dimension distinct from general 'high-fidelity' marketing language.
Krea's own model card warns prompt-following 'may be influenced by prompt style, specificity, language, and phrasing' — a caveat, not a rating.
fal.ai's own example output is 1024x576; no stated maximum resolution found.
Ratings are estimated — limited independent data is available for this model.
Operator guidance
Route here for fast, cheap iteration and open-weights self-hosting. Step up to a frontier model when peak photorealism, text rendering or compositional accuracy matter more than speed: Krea's claims for this model cover speed and cost only, with no independent scores on those dimensions.
Use cases
- Rapid ideation and concepting where iteration speed matters more than peak fidelity
- High-volume, cost-sensitive generation ($0.008/megapixel)
- Open-weight self-hosting under the Krea 2 Community License
Limitations
- Most capability dimensions beyond inference-speed are unrated — Krea has not published independently verifiable claims for photorealism, text-rendering, prompt-adherence, compositional-accuracy, or a maximum resolution
- Krea's own model card acknowledges prompt-following can be inconsistent depending on prompt style/specificity/language
