Production assets
Generate polished product imagery, posters, transparent cutouts, and presentation-ready visual systems.
Key capabilities
Why creators pick GPT Image 2.5
Two modes for different production needs
Use Flare for fast iteration and volume. Switch to Sunburst when the final creative needs more precision across detailed generations and edits.
More reliable targeted edits
Change the requested detail while preserving subjects, composition, product identity, and earlier decisions more consistently.
A broader quality ladder
Move from low-cost drafts through High, Extra high, and Max quality without changing workflows or rebuilding the prompt.
Transparent, high-resolution output
Create transparent PNG or WebP assets and select experimental output sizes up to 3840 pixels for demanding layouts.
How to get a strong result
Tips for better results
Start with the subject, then add lighting, style, and anything that must stay the same. Upload a reference whenever you want a more controlled edit.
- 1
Start with Flare
Validate composition and wording quickly, then switch to Sunburst only when the extra precision adds value.
- 2
Name every reference
Explain what each uploaded image contributes: subject, style, product, background, or composition.
- 3
Reserve Max for finals
Max costs substantially more than High. Use it after the direction and exact text are already approved.
- 4
Match format to background
Choose PNG or WebP when requesting transparency; JPEG is best reserved for opaque photographic output.
