Z Image Turbo
Z Image Turbo is an image generation model from Qwen that supports LoRA adapters and source image input at $0.005 per image.
Fast image generation with LoRA and image input
Z Image Turbo is an image generation model published by Qwen and served through the Wavespeed provider on MindStudio. It accepts a source image as input alongside text prompts, allowing users to guide generation from an existing visual reference with a configurable strength parameter. The model also supports LoRA adapters, enabling fine-tuned style or subject conditioning on top of the base generation pipeline.
Z Image Turbo is suited for workflows that require rapid, cost-efficient image generation at $0.005 per image, particularly when custom LoRA weights or image-to-image transformations are part of the pipeline. Users can specify output dimensions via width and height inputs, apply a negative prompt to steer results away from unwanted content, and set a seed for reproducible outputs. The model was released in November 2025 and is currently available on MindStudio.
What Z Image Turbo supports
Source Image Input
Accepts an existing image URL as a conditioning reference, with a configurable strength parameter to control how closely the output follows the source.
LoRA Support
Allows custom LoRA adapter weights to be applied at inference time, enabling fine-tuned style or subject conditioning without retraining the base model.
Negative Prompting
Accepts a negative prompt as a text input to explicitly exclude unwanted visual elements or styles from the generated output.
Custom Output Dimensions
Supports user-specified width and height values so generated images can be sized to match specific layout or aspect ratio requirements.
Reproducible Generation
Accepts a seed value as input, allowing users to reproduce identical outputs across multiple runs given the same prompt and parameters.

Parameters & options
Up to 3 LoRAs.
Controls the strength of the transformation if an input image is provided. Higher values produce outputs more different from the input image.
Description of what to exclude from the video.
A specific value that is used to guide the 'randomness' of the generation.
