What are GPT Image 1 and 1.5?

Before GPT Image 2, OpenAI’s image line on APIMart included GPT Image 1 (stability-first) and GPT Image 1.5 (higher quality and editing). Both support up to four outputs per request, fifteen reference images, PNG/JPEG/WebP, and optional transparent backgrounds — still relevant for teams standardized on the 1.x API surface.

Text in images

1.5 especially strong for headlines, labels, and layout-heavy marketing.

Inpainting

Mask-based edits alongside text-to-image and image-to-image.

Transparent PNG

Background=transparent pairs with PNG for UI and e-commerce cutouts.

15 references

Multi-reference fusion for complex composite edits.
