What they are
Flodesk
Flodesk is an email marketing platform focused on design-first newsletters and automated workflows. It attracts independent creators, photographers, and small-business owners who prioritize aesthetics over deep segmentation. The flat monthly rate has been abandoned, pricing is now subscriber-based and scales with list size ($19 is the starting price at 1,000 subs) so the price scales as the list grows. The trade-off is a thinner feature set compared to platforms like Klaviyo or ActiveCampaign.
Flux
Flux is a family of text-to-image models from Black Forest Labs, the team behind Stable Diffusion. It generates high-resolution, photorealistic and stylized images from text prompts, with strong prompt adherence and fine detail. Creators, designers, and developers use it via API or third-party platforms. Flux produces genuinely impressive output, but there is no native consumer app, so getting started requires some technical setup or a compatible host.
