GPT Image 2 AI Image Generator

Where GPT Image 2 is strongest

GPT Image 2 follows long, specific prompts closely: object counts, positions and wording usually come out as written. That makes it the first choice for posters, menus, labels, infographics and interface mockups. In those, one misspelled word ruins the image.

The quality tier on this page

OpenAI prices GPT Image 2 by quality tier. This page runs the medium tier, which keeps the rate at 14 credits per image. You can pick a square, 3:2 landscape or 2:3 portrait image in the form.

When to pick another model

For photoreal skin, products and natural light, FLUX 2 [max] or Nano Banana Pro look more like photographs. For many quick variations of one idea, start in FLUX schnell. All of them are linked in the form and use the same balance.

Laying out a text-heavy prompt

List the elements in reading order, with every visible word in quotes and a position for each. For example: "Square sale banner, top line 'Spring Clearance', middle line 'All sandals reduced' in red. Bottom line 'Ends Sunday', white background, one sandal photo on the right." A second example: "Recipe card titled 'Lemon Ricotta Pancakes', ingredients down the left. Numbered steps on the right, small pencil sketch of a lemon." Since it takes unusual instructions literally, say what must not appear too, such as extra text or a border. The Poster with text preset is the closest starting brief.

Picking a ratio and a backup model

Unlike the FLUX pages, there is no 4:5 or 9:16 here. Use 2:3 for flyers and recipe cards, 3:2 for slides and blog headers, 1:1 for product tiles. At 14 credits per image, two spelling checks cost less than one Nano Banana Pro run at 38. For multilingual layouts, Seedream 5.0 Pro at the same 14 credits lays out full designs in 15 languages. For a logo sketch or an icon set in one brand style, Recraft V3 costs 6. With no words in the picture, FLUX 2 [max] at 16 gives a more photographic result.
