OpenRouter Adds Riverflow 2.5 Image Model with Controllable Reasoning and Scoring Rubric
· Updated
OpenRouter has integrated Sourceful's Riverflow 2.5 image model, which allows users to define a scoring rubric for guiding image generation and adjust reasoning effort. This provides granular control over output quality and composition, enabling more precise alignment with specific creative or brand requirements.
- Reasoning effort
- Controllable (low/medium/high for Fast, low/medium/high/xhigh for Pro)
- Output resolutions
- Up to 2K (Fast), Up to 4K (Pro)
- Max input images
- 4 (Fast), 10 (Pro)
- Scoring rubric
- User-controlled
- Background control
- Transparent or solid-color outputs
This update provides more explicit control over AI image generation, moving beyond basic prompt engineering. Defining a scoring rubric and adjusting reasoning effort aligns with using "test-time compute" to improve output quality. This offers a sophisticated way to align generation with creative or brand requirements.
Riverflow 2.5 comes in two tiers: Fast for quick iteration, Pro for quality-sensitive work, both free on OpenRouter until June 9, with custom font rendering and background control. Reaching it through OpenRouter's unified API puts it alongside the platform's earlier Recraft V4 integration, no separate setup.
