GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's flagship image generation and editing model, released in April 2026. It excels at detailed instruction following, dense text rendering, multilingual typography and a wide range of visual styles — and it's live on Molyin: generate with it right on this page.

Are GPT Image 2 and ChatGPT Images 2.0 the same thing?

Yes. ChatGPT Images 2.0 is the product experience OpenAI announced in April 2026; GPT Image 2 (sometimes written GPT Image 2.0) is the underlying model that powers it. On Molyin you use that same model directly.

How many credits does a GPT Image 2 image cost?

A 1K image costs 8 credits, a 2K image 13 credits and a 4K image 21 credits. There are no hidden fees — the exact cost is shown before you generate.

Can I try GPT Image 2 for free?

Yes. New accounts receive free credits at sign-up — enough to generate your first GPT Image 2 images at 1K (8 credits per image), no card required.

Which aspect ratios does GPT Image 2 support?

16 presets, from 3:1 ultrawide banners to 1:3 vertical strips — including 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, square and more. Ask for a ratio in the prompt or pick one from the preset selector.

How good is GPT Image 2 at rendering text?

It is one of the model's headline strengths. Magazine layouts, infographics, posters with lots of copy, UI mockups and even messy handwriting come out legible. For best results, put the exact text you want in quotes in your prompt.

Can GPT Image 2 render non-English text?

Yes. GPT Image 2 makes significant gains in non-Latin scripts — particularly Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi and Bengali — producing text that is rendered correctly and reads coherently as part of the design, from posters and comics to diagrams.

Can GPT Image 2 edit my existing images?

Yes. Switch to image-to-image mode, upload up to 16 reference images, and describe the change in natural language — restyle, combine subjects, extend scenes or keep a character consistent across outputs.

How do I write good GPT Image 2 prompts?

Be specific about three things: the subject and style (name the medium — '35mm photograph', 'seinen manga page', '1960s theatrical poster'), any text to render (put it in quotes), and the format (ask for the aspect ratio directly, like '3:1 ultrawide'). For dense layouts, describe each section — the model follows structure remarkably well. Short prompts also work: 'a page of a comic book in the style of Japanese Seinen manga' is a real launch example.

What are GPT Image 2's limitations?

It can still struggle with tasks that need a fully coherent physical world model — origami step diagrams, Rubik's Cube states, or text on hidden and reversed surfaces — and with very dense repetitive detail. Labels and arrows in technical diagrams are worth a quick review before you publish.

GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana — which should I use?

Both are live on Molyin. Reach for GPT Image 2 when the image is built around text, layout or multi-panel storytelling — magazines, posters, comics, infographics. Nano Banana is a great pick for fast photoreal composites and product shots, with a budget tier from 5 credits. Switching models takes one click in the generator above.

What is GPT Image 2?

GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's flagship image generation and editing model, released on April 21, 2026 as the engine behind ChatGPT Images 2.0. It is a step change in detailed instruction following: it places and relates objects accurately, renders dense small text that older models garble, and keeps the fine-grained elements that usually break image generation — iconography, UI elements, packed compositions and subtle stylistic constraints. You'll also see it called ChatGPT Images 2.0 or GPT Image 2.0 — they all refer to the same model.

Its range is unusually wide. Photorealistic shots keep the tiny imperfections that make photos feel real; manga pages, film posters, pixel art and editorial infographics come out in the requested visual language instead of an approximation of it. Multilingual text rendering is a headline strength — Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi and Bengali typography flows coherently as part of the design — and a December 2025 knowledge cutoff means explainers and educational graphics draw on an up-to-date picture of the world.

On Molyin, GPT Image 2 is live right now: generate from text or upload reference images and edit with natural language, at 1K, 2K or 4K and 16 aspect ratios from 3:1 ultrawide to 1:3 vertical. It's one of the models in our AI image generator, on the same credit balance as every other model — transparent per-image rates are on the credit pricing page.
