Z-IMAGE MODEL FAMILY

What is Z-Image Edit?

Z-Image-Edit is the dedicated editing member of the Z-Image model family developed by Tongyi-MAI. It is designed for instruction-driven editing and creative image-to-image work. Until those weights are released, this workspace uses currently available editing models through WaveSpeed.

Model status — accurate as of August 12, 2026

Tongyi-MAI still lists the dedicated Z-Image-Edit weights as “To be released.” This online editor does not claim to run unreleased weights: whole-image instruction edits use Qwen Image Edit Plus, while masked local edits use FLUX Dev inpainting.

FAQ

Z-Image Edit FAQ

Is Z-Image-Edit officially released?

No. As of August 12, 2026, Tongyi-MAI still marks the dedicated Z-Image-Edit weights as “To be released” in its official repository.

Can I use Z-Image Edit online now?

Yes. Until the dedicated weights are released, this workspace uses Qwen Image Edit Plus for whole-image instructions and FLUX Dev for masked local edits.

Who can use the editor?

Only signed-in users with at least one successful credit-pack purchase can start an edit. Visitors can prepare an image, prompt, settings, and mask before unlocking it.

How many credits does editing cost?

Whole-image editing costs 3 credits and inpainting costs 4 by default. The button shows the configured cost before submission.

Can I remove an object or change a background?

Yes. Use Inpaint for a selected object or local region, and Whole Image when the background or overall appearance should change.

What happens if an edit fails?

The existing asynchronous job system returns reserved credits automatically when a provider task fails.

Can I keep editing the result?

Yes. Choose Use as source to create an explicit result-to-result editing chain without downloading and uploading again.

Can I use Z-Image with ComfyUI?

Yes. The ComfyUI guide covers local Z-Image workflows. The dedicated Z-Image-Edit weights cannot be installed until Tongyi-MAI releases them.
