Evidence claims:
- [sourced_fact] arXiv listing: submitted 17 June 2025 (v1), revised 24 June 2025 (v2); authored by Black Forest Labs and 20 other authors. · source: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.15742
- [upstream_claim] Abstract claims a unified generation+editing flow-matching model with better preservation of objects and characters across iterative edits, competitive quality and faster generation, and introduces KontextBench (1,026 pairs, five task categories). · source: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.15742
- [upstream_claim] Research review verdict at export: reviewed (as of 2026-10-17). Recorded by the research pipeline, not a hub review outcome; evidence.review stays unreviewed until an independent reviewer records one.
