GPT Image 2.5 Flare

by OpenAI

GPT Image 2.5 Flare is one of two models in OpenAI's GPT Image 2.5 generation, alongside Sunburst. OpenAI positions Flare for fast, high-quality everyday image generation and Sunburst for workflows where editing precision matters most. The default snapshot is gpt-image-2.5-flare-2026-09-08. Flare accepts text and image inputs and outputs images, covering both generation and editing, including inpainting. It adds quality settings of low, medium, high, xhigh, max and auto, supports custom dimensions in multiples of 16 alongside the standard square, landscape and portrait sizes, and can render transparent backgrounds in PNG or WebP. It fits high-volume and latency-sensitive image work such as social and product visuals, rapid prototyping and in-app generation, with Sunburst the better choice when precise, detailed edits matter more than speed.
