GPT Image Update

GPT Image 2.5 — Create. Edit. Refine.

GPT Image 2.5 is OpenAI's latest image generation and editing model, built for creative workflows where details matter. Generate from text, transform reference images, make precise edits, and refine the same image through multiple iterations—all without starting over.

GPT Image 2.5

Less regeneration. More iteration.

GPT Image 2.5 is designed around a different creative workflow: instead of discarding and regenerating from scratch every time, you build on the image you already like and refine it iteratively.

01

Superior Reference Fidelity

GPT Image 2.5 preserves the facial features, composition, and style details from your reference image with remarkable accuracy.

02

Pinpoint Precision Editing

With enhanced instruction understanding, you can describe exactly what to change using natural language.

03

Faster Iteration Cycles

GPT Image 2.5 delivers up to 50% lower latency compared to its predecessor. That means more refinement rounds in less time, a smoother creative flow, and no waiting around when inspiration strikes.

What’s new in GPT Image 2.5?

GPT Image 2.5 isn't simply a higher-resolution image generator. Its biggest improvements are visible when you ask it to preserve, modify, and refine visual information.

Better reference image fidelity

GPT Image 2.5 is better at preserving the identity and distinctive characteristics of subjects from reference images while transforming their setting, style, composition, or lighting.

Better reference image fidelity

Edit one thing. Keep everything else.

One of the biggest improvements in GPT Image 2.5 is targeted editing. Instead of regenerating the entire image when you only want to change one element, you can give a focused instruction and preserve the rest of the composition.

Edit one thing. Keep everything else.

Multi-turn consistency

Creative work rarely ends with the first generation. GPT Image 2.5 is designed to maintain more consistency across multiple editing turns, allowing you to progressively refine an image instead of rebuilding it from scratch.
