Krea 2 Medium

Krea 2 Medium is the smaller hosted Krea 2 image model. It exposes creativity and style-reference controls for art direction. Style references guide appearance; they are not a targeted image-editing endpoint.

Anvisha's take

Krea 2 Medium is more useful here for visual direction than exact diagrams. Its poster bends the headline into a lively composition, and the lighthouse image has a convincing print texture. The product prompt instead returns an overhead, pan-like object with a handle. The infographic invents a heading and extra copy, and the chart uses floating rounded blocks rather than a straightforward bar chart. There is no targeted-edit endpoint in this adapter, so that task is explicitly unsupported. The portrait and wide fixtures also use the nearest supported aspect ratios, rather than the exact benchmark ratios.
