ChatGPT Image
OpenAI
ChatGPT Image is OpenAI's built-in image generation capability, now powered by autoregressive GPT Image models (1.5 and GPT Image 2 as of 2026) rather than the legacy DALL-E diffusion system. Unlike DALL-E, GPT Image models are architecturally integrated into the GPT-5 neural network, enabling accurate text rendering, complex spatial instructions, and multi-turn image editing through natural conversation. DALL-E 2 and DALL-E 3 were removed from the API on May 12, 2026. Available via ChatGPT Free (3 images/day), Plus ($20/mo), and Pro ($200/mo). API pricing from $0.005–$0.211/image.
Free: ~3 images/day. Plus: $20/mo (unlimited via ChatGPT). Pro: $200/mo. API: $0.005–$0.211/image depending on model and quality.
