GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst — Precision AI Images

Sunburst is the precision version of OpenAI's GPT Image 2.5. It takes longer per image and aims for the most careful finish, for the frames that have to be right.

For the frame that has to be right

Fidelity first
Sunburst trades speed for finish. Use it for close-ups, fine materials and busy compositions where small details decide whether an image is usable.

Edit with up to 16 references
Upload a photo and describe the change, or add several references to keep a product, a face or a style exact across a set. Tell the model which reference does which job.

Same price as Flare
Sunburst costs the same per image as GPT Image 2.5 Flare: 53 credits at 1K or 2K, 105 at 4K. Draft on Flare, then rerun the keeper on Sunburst.

53 credits per image at 1K or 2K, and 105 credits at 4K.
Why does Sunburst take longer?
