MOSS-Image-SFTvs.Lumina-Image 2.0

Which one is better?

In our own test, MOSS-Image-SFT leads. Neither is in the arena. Neither has an API price.

Same task, the first image of each. The task with the biggest difference is preselected.

MOSS-Image-SFT: Infographic, first image from the fixed test run — MOSS-Image-SFT75 out of 100

Lumina-Image 2.0: Infographic, first image from the fixed test run — Lumina-Image 2.06 out of 100

Result for “Infographic”:MOSS-Image-SFT ahead

Prompt given to both modelsCreate a square German infographic titled SO FUNKTIONIERT PHOTOSYNTHESE. Show exactly four numbered steps in this order: 1 LICHT, 2 WASSER, 3 CO₂, 4 ZUCKER + SAUERSTOFF. Use a clean editorial science style with one plant cross-section, simple arrows, high contrast, legible labels, and no other text.

What the rating looks at: Numbers, labels, and visual organization.

“Ahead”: better in all three rating rounds. “Slightly ahead”: a higher value, but not in every round.

Test protocol of the images

Both models receive the same archived prompt in exactly one request, and the first result counts. Files are normalized to 1,024 × 1,024 pixels without cropping. Provider resolution, randomness, quality tier and prompt processing can still differ. The images are a practical visual test, not a reconstruction of the arena configuration.
