About This Model

GPT Image 1.5 is OpenAI's latest image generation model (December 2025), built to replace GPT-4o's image capabilities. It powers image generation in ChatGPT and delivers major upgrades over GPT-4o — faster speed, more accurate text rendering, better prompt following, and native image editing that GPT-4o couldn't do.

Key Features

  • 4x faster generation — Dramatically reduced wait times for rapid iteration
  • Superior text rendering — Handles denser, smaller text with significantly improved accuracy
  • Precise image editing — Modifies only what you ask while preserving lighting, composition, and identity
  • Text-to-Image & Image-to-Image — Generate from scratch or transform existing images in one place
  • Multi-image input — Combine people or objects from multiple source images into a cohesive scene
  • Identity preservation — Robust facial and likeness consistency across edits and multi-step workflows

Best For

  • Marketing and advertising visuals
  • Product mockups and design prototyping
  • Social media content creation
  • Photo editing and retouching
  • Text-heavy graphics (logos, posters, UI mockups)

Tips for Better Results

  • Be specific — Detailed prompts produce more accurate results
  • Use Medium quality — Great balance of speed and quality for most use cases
  • Use High quality — Best for final production assets where detail matters
  • Image editing — Upload a source image and describe only the changes you want

FAQ

What's the difference between Medium and High quality?

Medium is ideal for drafts and iteration — fast and cost-effective. High delivers maximum detail and realism for final production use.

How does image-to-image work?

Upload one or more source images along with your prompt. The model will edit or transform them based on your instructions while preserving elements you didn't ask to change.

How does GPT Image 1.5 compare to GPT-4o?

GPT Image 1.5 is the direct successor to GPT-4o's image generation. Key improvements: 4x faster generation, significantly better text rendering, more accurate prompt following, and robust identity preservation across edits. If you were using GPT-4o for images, GPT Image 1.5 is the upgrade.

How does it compare to DALL-E 3?

GPT Image 1.5 is a generational leap beyond DALL-E 3 — better text rendering, more accurate prompt following, faster generation, and native image editing capabilities that DALL-E 3 doesn't offer.
