GPT Image 2
GPT Image 2 costs $0.072/image on FairStack — a text to image model for Marketing images with precise text, Multilingual content (CJK), Handwritten-style compositions. No subscription required. Pay per generation with full REST API access. FairStack applies a transparent 20% margin on infrastructure cost so you always see the real price.
What is GPT Image 2?
GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's successor to GPT Image 1.5, released April 2026. It delivers near-perfect text rendering including handwritten notes and CJK scripts, eliminates the persistent warm color cast that plagued 1.5, and brings meaningful gains in prompt adherence and multi-object scene handling. The image-to-image endpoint supports precise inpainting and outpainting via mask images. On FairStack, GPT Image 2 runs on fal.ai with full parameter control: three quality tiers (low $0.01 / medium $0.06 / high $0.22 at 1024×1024), six preset resolutions (square_hd, square, portrait_4_3, portrait_16_9, landscape_4_3, landscape_16_9), and custom width×height sizing (multiples of 16, up to 8.3M total pixels). We chose fal.ai over the Kie.ai variant specifically because Kie.ai's gpt-image-2 endpoint accepts only prompt+aspect_ratio with no way to control quality or resolution. This is the recommended model for marketing images with text, multilingual content, UI mockups, and any workflow where 1.5 was close but not quite right.
