Riverflow V2.5 Fast is the speed-optimized variant of Sourceful's Riverflow 2.5 lineup, best for production deployments and latency-critical workflows.
The Riverflow 2.5 series is a unified text-to-image and image-to-image family that treats generation as a production workflow, using an integrated reasoning model to plan multi-step edits and judge candidates before accepting a result. Riverflow 2.5 combines their reasoning with a mix of open image diffusion models to provide greater accuracy and steerability. Reasoning effort is controllable via the reasoning parameter (low/medium/high) - higher levels do more editing passes and apply a stricter internal judge, while lower levels return faster for early exploration. It generates at 1K and 2K resolution (no 4K) and accepts up to 4 input images for editing.
Pricing is dynamic: cost is finalized per job at completion based on billable processing, so it scales with reasoning effort, resolution, and editing complexity rather than a fixed per-image rate.

Note: Sourceful imposes a 4.5MB request size limit, therefore it is highly recommended to pass image URLs instead of Base64 data.
