Qwen Image 3 API: Text-to-Image and Image Editing
Qwen-Image-3.0 is the third-generation model in the Qwen-Image series, built for information-dense images: prompts up to 4.5K tokens, legible text down to 10px and native rendering in 12 languages. On ModelFold it runs as four API models: standard and Pro, each for text-to-image and image-to-image.
Qwen Image 3 API Parameters on ModelFold
Qwen Image 3 and Qwen Image 3 Pro accept the same parameters on ModelFold; they differ in the model itself, not in the request.

| Endpoint | POST https://ai.modelfold.online/v1/images/generations; the response returns the finished image URLs |

| Negative prompt | Optional; up to 5,000 characters |
| Input images (image-to-image) | 1 to 3 image URLs; JPEG, PNG, WebP, BMP, GIF or TIFF; up to 10 MB each; each input image adds a small fee, shown in the pricing card above |
| Resolution | 1K or 2K (image-to-image defaults to 1K) |
| Aspect ratio | 1:1, 3:2, 2:3, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16, 21:9 (default 16:9) |

What Qwen Image 3 Can Generate
Each example below was generated with Qwen Image 3 Pro on ModelFold in October 2026 from the prompt described in its caption; images are shown as generated, resized for the web.
Long Prompt, Dense Layout: A Four-Panel Water Cycle Infographic
Qwen-Image-3.0 is built to follow long prompts of about 4.5K tokens, so one request can describe an entire layout. This infographic came from a single prompt of about 110 words that specified four panels, their labels, a bar chart with four values and a footer caption; all of them appear in the image.
Small Text and Real Textures: A Handwritten Recipe Card on Wood
The Qwen team says the model renders text as small as 10px and fine surface detail. Here the handwritten ingredient list and the small typed note stay legible, alongside paper fibers, a faint coffee ring and wood grain.
Multilingual Text: One Poster in English, Japanese and Spanish
Qwen-Image-3.0 renders text natively in 12 languages. This phrase poster places the same four phrases in English, Japanese and Spanish, including Japanese kana and kanji and Spanish accents and inverted question marks.
Image Editing: Handwritten Notes Added to an Existing Photo
Starting from the recipe card above, one instruction added three handwritten notes, two of them with arrows. In this edit the card, table and lighting stayed the same while the notes were added.
Qwen Image 3 vs Qwen Image 3 Pro: Which One to Use
On ModelFold the two versions take exactly the same request, so switching is a one-word change in the model name. On the Artificial Analysis text-to-image arena, Qwen-Image-3.0-Pro scores 1087 and Qwen-Image-3.0 scores 1075, and their score ranges overlap. Because the measured difference is small, a practical default is the standard model; use Pro for text-heavy final assets only if a side-by-side on your own prompts shows a difference. Pricing for each model is shown in the pricing card above. The Qwen team positions Qwen-Image-3.0 for information-dense images such as newspapers, storyboards, exam papers and interface mockups. For text specifically, LMArena's text-rendering leaderboard lists Qwen-Image-3.0-Pro at 1283, GPT Image 2 (medium) at 1425 and Seedream 5.0 Pro at 1255 (as of October 7, 2026).
| Qwen Image 3 | Qwen Image 3 Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Models on ModelFold | qwen3/text-to-image, qwen3/image-to-image | qwen3/pro-text-to-image, qwen3/pro-image-to-image |
| Request parameters | Same as Pro | Same as standard |
| Artificial Analysis text-to-image score (Oct 2026) | 1075 | 1087 |
| LMArena text-to-image score (Oct 7, 2026) | Not listed | 1255 |
| LMArena text-rendering score (Oct 7, 2026) | Not listed | 1283 |

Typical Uses for Qwen Image 3
The Qwen team built Qwen-Image-3.0 for images where the text and layout have to be right, not only the look. These are the kinds of work that fit.
Education and Publishing Pages
Lesson slides, exam papers, formula-heavy pages and newspaper-style layouts, where every heading, label and equation has to be readable in a single image.
Interface Mockups for Prototypes
Realistic screens for web pages, mobile apps, games and livestreams to drop into pitch decks, design reviews or early user tests before anything is built.
Localized Marketing Visuals
Posters, menus, signage and social graphics that need the same design in several languages, generated with the text in place instead of added afterwards.
Annotated Figures from Real Photos
Turning an existing photo into a labeled figure for reports, research notes or product documentation with image-to-image, keeping the original subject and adding the annotations.
How to Use the Qwen Image 3 API on ModelFold
- 1
Step 1. Get Your API Key

- 2
Step 2. Test Your Prompt in the Playground
You can try this model in the playground on this page without writing code. Switch between the four models to compare outputs on your own prompts.
- ✓
Step 3. Send the Request and Get the Result
Send a POST request to https://ai.modelfold.online/v1/images/generations with the model name, your prompt and an optional resolution. The response returns the finished image URLs, so there is no task polling or callback to set up. The other parameters in the table above can all be tried in the Playground on this page.
Tips Before You Ship
Set the Output Format Yourself
The docs ask you to set output_format explicitly, so choose PNG or JPEG in every request rather than relying on a default.
Pass Image URLs, Not Files
Image-to-image takes publicly reachable image URLs.
Proofread the Text in Every Image
In one of our four test images the model added labels we did not ask for (see the infographic above), so check generated text before you publish, especially numbers and names. Prompt rewriting (prompt_extend) is on by default; if you need your exact wording, compare results with it on and off.
