The same model that draws in ChatGPT. A 1K image costs $0.050.
GPT Image is made by OpenAI and powers images in ChatGPT. It follows long descriptions closely and renders readable text: signs, card messages, diagram labels.
GPT Image 2 and GPT Image 2.5 have the same standard price. You can upload up to 16 reference images. In Cheap mode the price depends on the detail level: at high detail it is half the standard price, and GPT Image 2 takes up to 9 references. Reliable mode exists only in GPT Image 2, goes directly through OpenAI and costs more.
Put image text in quotes.
