GPT Image 1.5
OpenAI's latest image model, 4x faster than GPT Image 1, with an affordable Low quality mode (1 credit/image) for rapid iterations and image edits.
TL;DR
Evolution of GPT Image 1.
Key Updates:
Improved Text Rendering: Handles denser and smaller text with better legibility.
Precise Editing: Change specific elements without regenerating the entire scene.
Identity Preservation: Maintains facial likeness and composition across edits.
Affordable Quality Tiers: Low quality mode delivers decent results at minimal cost (1 credit per generation).
Much faster than GPT Image 1: Up to 4x faster generations.
Ideal use cases
Rapid iterations: Quick concept exploration using Low quality mode before committing to finals.
Text-heavy graphics: Infographics, banners, and visuals requiring legible typography.
Image editing and asset variations: Product variants, seasonal updates, localization without starting from scratch.
Style transfers and try-ons: Clothing changes, filters, or hairstyle tests while maintaining subject consistency.
Weaknesses
With the highest quality parameters, it is worse than Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 4.5 (for a similar cost).
Limited aspect ratios (only 3 options vs. 10+ on other models).
Yellow tint tendency, images can have a warm color cast by default. Pletor provides a dedicated parameter to remove this effect from generated visuals.
Commercial aesthetic bias: outputs feel polished, less authentic for UGC-style content.
How to use effectively
For fast iterations: Set quality to "Low" when exploring concepts. You'll get results in seconds at minimal cost, and the output quality is often sufficient for client reviews or internal alignment.
For text-heavy designs: Put exact copy in "quotes" and describe the typography style. Be specific: "Bold sans-serif, centered, high contrast" helps ensure legibility. Set quality to "High" for dense layouts.
For precise edits: Make one change at a time rather than rewriting entire prompts. Reference multiple input images by number: "Apply the style from image 1 to the subject in image 2."
For consistent characters: Always upload reference images when you need identity preservation across multiple generations. The model excels at maintaining facial likeness when given a clear reference.
