by OpenAI
OpenAI's image model — the best at following complex instructions and rendering text.
GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's image generation and editing model. Its strengths are instruction following and legible text: give it a detailed brief — layout, copy, product placement, brand colours from your Brand Kit — and it composes the image rather than approximating it. It edits existing images with the same precision.
Zalify offers three quality tiers and output up to 4K. Low quality is the cheapest image in Canvas and ideal for exploring compositions; medium is the everyday default; high is for final assets where fine detail matters. Price scales with pixel count, so larger and higher-resolution outputs cost proportionally more.
GPT Image 2 pricing on Zalify
GPT Image 2 is billed per produced image. The rate depends on the quality or output resolution you choose — aspect ratio and prompt length don't change the price.
| Quality / resolution | Price per image |
|---|---|
| Low quality | $0.0165 |
| Medium quality | $0.063 |
| High quality | $0.2505 |
Rates shown are for a 1K square image. Landscape and portrait sizes, and 2K / 4K output, scale with pixel count — a 4K render costs roughly 4× the 1K rate at the same quality.
