What is Uni-1?
Luma's image model for generation, references and text edits.
Who is Uni-1 best for?
Uni-1 is best for creators and design teams who want to steer images closely with references and detailed edits.
Images built from references
It can take up to 9 reference images, which helps keep a character, product or style the same across a set.
Editing with plain instructions
Give it an image and describe the change, and it edits that image rather than starting over.
Cinematic and art-directed shots
Prompts can set camera angle, lighting and composition, and Luma points to cinematic images and novel viewpoints as its strengths.
Manga, webtoon and style work
Luma names manga and webtoon panels, style transfer and style references among its strongest uses, not only photo-style images.
