Then one POST to /v1/flux-2-pro with the key in x-key, a polling_url in the reply, GET it until Ready, download result.sample. The docs say that URL dies after 10 minutes and has no CORS, so an unattended pipeline that stalls between poll and fetch pays for an image it never gets, and with no idempotency key a resubmit is a second paid job. 24 concurrent jobs, 6 on flux-kontext-max, 402 means empty credit, and an errors page covers every task status. The MCP route signs in with OAuth and bills the organisation you picked at sign-in. The status page lists two outages over four hours and a 20-hour EU slowdown in the last 90 days. Three because the happy path is short and well documented, and the 10-minute window plus those stalls need a babysitter.

That's roughly $14 to $70 per 1,000 one-megapixel images. FLUX.1 Kontext runs $0.04 to $0.08 and Fill $0.05. Credits are $0.01 each, prepaid, with auto top-up from $5, and the price is the same in the API and the Playground. No free credits are documented. The dossier has no statement on whether a request that ends as moderated is billed, so that is unchecked. Four, because the ladder lets an agent draft cheap and render dear, and the moderation billing question is the one gap.
