GPT Image 2 is the image generation and editing model from OpenAI, released on April 21, 2026. Its API name is gpt-image-2, and in ChatGPT it launched as ChatGPT Images 2.0. Text and images go in, and a finished image comes out. It renders dense text, small text, UI elements, and every aspect ratio from 3:1 to 1:3. It holds the #3 spot on the LMArena text-to-image leaderboard with 1,381 points, behind only OpenAI's two GPT Image 2.5 models. You can use it right now to turn your prompts into sharp designs and posters.

Since September 8, 2026, ChatGPT runs the newer ChatGPT Images 2.5 for all users, while GPT Image 2 stays live in OpenAI's API with no retirement date. On Seadanse, you pick GPT Image 2 by name, and every image comes directly from OpenAI's GPT Image 2 model.
Developers call gpt-image-2 in OpenAI's API, and OpenAI offers no standalone GPT Image 2 app. On Seadanse, you use GPT Image 2 directly in your web browser with no OpenAI account, no API key, and no ChatGPT plan. Every image comes from OpenAI's GPT Image 2 model, and signing up gives you 40 free starter credits to test it out.

GPT Image 2.5 is OpenAI's newer model, released September 8, 2026, in two versions: Flare, the default choice for most applications, and Sunburst, built for an extra level of precision for detailed creative work. GPT Image 2 is the April 2026 model that ranks #3 on the LMArena text-to-image leaderboard, right behind those two. Read our GPT Image 2.5 vs GPT Image 2 guide for details. On Seadanse, you find all three in the same model picker at 4 credits per image for GPT Image 2, 6 for GPT Image 2.5 Flare, and 10 for Sunburst, so you can run your prompt across them and keep your favorite.
On the LMArena text-to-image leaderboard, GPT Image 2 scores 1,381 points, Nano Banana 2 scores 1,261, and Seedream 5 Pro scores 1,257.

GPT Image 2 offers four quality settings: low, medium, high, and auto. The LMArena leaderboard lists the model as gpt-image-2 (medium), which earned the #3 rank for text to image. According to OpenAI's image prompting guide, picking medium or high quality gives you the best results for small text and dense information.
Yes. Upload one or several photos and tell the model what to change in plain words. GPT Image 2 reads every reference image at high fidelity, so faces, products, and label text keep their clear details. Simply write "change only" for the part you want altered, list what you want to keep, and it will update that area while keeping the rest untouched.
Follow OpenAI's image prompting guide for top results: state the purpose and layout first, then describe the scene. Put exact text in quotation marks and say where it belongs. For an edit, say "change only" the specific part and list what to keep. Give every reference image a clear role, such as subject, style, clothing, or background, and select medium or high quality for dense details.
