Image generation

GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is the precision tier of OpenAI's GPT Image 2.5 series. It generates images from a prompt and edits images you supply as references, and it is meant for detailed creative work where getting an edit exactly right matters more than speed. Its sibling, GPT Image 2.5 Flare, favours speed and volume.

You set the quality (low to max, or auto), the aspect ratio and the number of images, up to ten per request. The price depends on the quality tier and is shown per image on this page. Through Hormouz you call it with POST /v1/predictions and fetch the results from the returned links.
