Generate and edit images with GPT Image 1.5

A fast OpenAI image model for production-ready visuals. Describe what you want, or upload a photo and change only the parts that matter — including cutouts with transparent backgrounds.

Create from a prompt

Generate logos, product shots, social creatives, UI mockups, and concept art from a written idea.

Edit what you already have

Try new clothing, restyle a room, translate on-image text, remove objects, or place a product in a new setting.

Keep characters consistent

Reuse the same look across scenes for stories, campaigns, and multi-frame boards.

Key capabilities

Why creators pick GPT Image 1.5

Fast when you need volume

Ideal for drafts, iterations, and campaign batches where speed and cost matter as much as quality.

Readable text in the frame

Posters, mockups, labels, and marketing layouts with lettering that stays clear enough to use.

Edits that keep the subject

Change an outfit, lighting, or prop without rewriting the whole photo. Faces and composition stay put when you ask.

Transparent backgrounds

Create cutouts and overlays when you need a clean subject on a transparent background.

Work from your own photos

Upload one image to edit it, or several to blend style and subject into a single result.

How to get a strong result

Tips for better results

Start with the subject, then add lighting, style, and anything that must stay the same. Upload a reference whenever you want a more controlled edit.

  1. 1

    Say what you want

    Be concrete. “Add soft coastal daylight” works better than “make it better.”

  2. 2

    Describe the look

    For photos, mention lighting and framing — soft daylight, close-up, wide shot — so the result feels intentional.

  3. 3

    Protect what should stay

    When editing, spell out what must not change: the face, pose, outfit, or camera angle.

  4. 4

    Put words in quotes

    For text inside the image, write the exact line in “quotes” and say how it should look.

  5. 5

    Change one thing at a time

    Start with a strong base image, then refine with small, clear adjustments.

  6. 6

    Point to each reference

    With several uploads, say how they relate — “use the style from the first image on the person in the second.”
