## Capabilities

- **Text rendering:** Keep headlines, UI labels, and multilingual copy readable in one frame—so posters, packaging, and product boards ship without fixing broken letters.
- **Instruction following:** Honor multi-constraint briefs—composition, wardrobe, hierarchy, and placement—across photoreal or campaign scenes without dropping key details.
- **Precise edits:** Change only what you ask—wardrobe, props, or background—while identity, lighting, and the rest of the frame hold. Start from an owned reference and describe the change in plain language.
- **Layout control:** Build comics, posters, and editorial spreads with clear panels, hierarchy, and readable callouts—not just a single styled subject.

## How to use

1. **Start from text or a reference:** Open GPT Image 2 with a text brief, or add an owned image for reference-led create or the image-edit route. Prefill from a Key Feature or Example if you want—nothing runs until you generate.
2. **Spell out text, layout, and settings:** Write exact headlines, UI labels, multilingual copy, panel structure, materials, and any surgical changes in plain language. Set ratio and resolution for the delivery you need.
3. **Generate, review, then edit:** Confirm the credit estimate and generate. Check readable text, identity, and layout, then download—or continue on image-edit to change only what you ask while the rest of the frame holds.

## Pricing

Generation cost varies by the selected input and output controls. 4–9 credits per output.

## FAQ

### What is GPT Image 2?

GPT Image 2 is OpenAI’s image generation and editing model. On MixVio you can start from a text prompt or an owned reference, then generate or continue with a natural-language edit—credits shown before you run.

### What is GPT Image 2 best for?

Use it for detailed briefs that must land: campaign posters, packaging and product stills, UI-style layouts, and prompt-led edits where readable in-image text and layout matter as much as the look.

### Can GPT Image 2 render readable text, including multilingual copy?

Yes—text rendering and layout control are core strengths. It handles headlines, labels, posters, and packaging, including multilingual copy such as CJK scripts. Still review fine print, spelling, brand names, and dense body text before you publish.

### Can I edit an existing image?

Yes. Upload one image you own or have permission to use (JPEG, PNG, or WebP, ≤30 MB), then describe the change in plain language—for example swap a background, update on-image copy, or adjust wardrobe. MixVio routes to the GPT Image 2 edit path. MixVio does not publish a separate pixel-size gate for these stills. Mask painting is not exposed yet, and unrequested details can still shift, so review before publishing.

### Which resolutions and aspect ratios does MixVio support?

Text-to-image and image edit support 1K, 2K, and 4K with auto, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, and 9:16. Auto ratio is only available at 1K, and 4K is not available at 1:1. Editing uses the same resolution table as generate.

### How many credits does GPT Image 2 use?

From 4 credits at 1K, 6 at 2K, and 9 at 4K—same table for generate and edit. MixVio shows the exact estimate before submission. Failed runs cost no credits.

### Is GPT Image 2 free?

Yes on the Free plan when you have credits. Free images are watermarked and capped at 1K. Paid plans unlock higher resolutions without the MixVio watermark. Failed runs cost no credits.

### How does GPT Image 2 compare with Nano Banana 2 or Grok Imagine Image 2.0?

Choose GPT Image 2 for strict prompts, premium edits, and high-resolution finals. Prefer Nano Banana 2 when you want faster balanced generate-and-edit loops, or Grok Imagine Image 2.0 for cinematic 1K/2K images with Low or Medium. Use the comparison table on this page for live Best for, grades, resolution, and credits.

### Can I use GPT Image 2 outputs commercially?

Paid-plan outputs may be used commercially, subject to the Terms of Service and current OpenAI terms. You must have rights to every prompt, reference, script, face, and brand. Free-plan outputs are for evaluation and are not for commercial publishing. MixVio does not guarantee exclusivity or trademark clearance.

### Are my prompts and outputs private on MixVio?

Yes. Prompts are routed server-side, and final media is archived privately to your workspace—not exposed in public URLs or client logs. Keep private prompts and asset IDs out of shared links.
