GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is the precision-focused tier of OpenAI's GPT Image 2.5 series, meant for detailed creative work. It runs at medium quality through OpenRouter for 20 credits per image, the same price as GPT Image 2.5 Flare, because both used the same number of image tokens in our test run. Up to four images come back per run, and each of up to sixteen reference photos adds 76 credits.
