About Qwen-Image-2.1

Qwen-Image-2.1 is one model from Alibaba's Qwen team, released with weights on 20 September 2026, that both generates and edits images from text. The generation side has 7 billion parameters in 32 single-stream DiT layers, and it can output transparent images as well as ordinary ones. The licence is the first thing a business should check, since it is limited to non-commercial use.

Main features

  • Generation and editing: creates images from text and edits them within one checkpoint.
  • Transparent output: produces RGBA images with an alpha channel, edits transparent layers, or cuts a subject out of a photograph.
  • Multi-reference editing: edits from up to ten reference images, with the region marked by circles, painted annotations or a mask.
  • Output sizes: up to 2048 by 2048 at 1:1, and 2752 by 1536 at 16:9.
