OpenAI GPT Image 2.5 Flare Image to Image: AI Image Editor

Edit images with GPT Image 2.5 Flare. Fast, precision single-element edits that keep the scene untouched. Pay per generation, no subscription. Transform and edit existing images using GPT-Image-2.5 Flare, OpenAI's default GPT Image 2.5 tier. Precision editing changes only what you ask for while preserving the rest of the scene, and multi-turn consistency keeps earlier edits intact across a chain of changes.

Overview

About this model

GPT Image 2.5 Flare Image to Image is OpenAI's newest instruction-based image editing model. It changes only what you ask for while keeping the rest of a scene untouched, and keeps earlier edits intact across a multi-turn chain instead of drifting or degrading like GPT Image 2. GPT-Image-2.5 Flare is OpenAI's default, fastest tier — the same quality and editing gains as GPT Image 2.5 at up to 50% lower latency than GPT Image 2. See GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst for the higher-precision tier.

1Product Photography: Swap a single product in a scene while keeping lighting and composition identical.
2Brand Creative: Update copy or a color on an existing asset without regenerating the whole image.
3Portrait Retouching: Change a background or outfit while preserving the subject's face and pose.
4Iterative Design: Chain several edits in sequence without earlier changes drifting or degrading.

How to Use GPT Image 2.5 Flare Image to Image

  1. Provide a source image — upload or link up to 16 reference images.

  2. Write a precise instruction — state what should change and what must stay identical (e.g. "replace only the bottle, keep the lighting and background exactly as shown").

  3. Submit the request — call the endpoint below and poll for the result:

curl -X POST https://api.muapi.ai/api/v1/gpt-image-2.5-flare-image-to-image \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt": "Change only the jacket color to forest green, keep everything else identical", "images_list": ["https://example.com/source.jpg"]}'
  1. Poll for the result using the returned request_id against /api/v1/predictions/{id}/result until status is completed.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

What is GPT Image 2.5 Image to Image?

It is OpenAI's newest instruction-based image editing model, alongside ChatGPT Images 2.5, available via the GPT-Image-2.5 Flare and Sunburst API models.

Is GPT Image 2.5 editing available on Muapi now?

Yes. GPT-Image-2.5 Flare and GPT-Image-2.5 Sunburst image editing are both live on Muapi.

How is this different from GPT Image 2 editing?

GPT Image 2.5 is more reliable at changing only the requested element while preserving the rest of a complex scene, and keeps earlier edits intact across multiple turns instead of drifting.

Why choose Flare over Sunburst?

Flare is the default, fastest tier with the same quality and editing gains as GPT Image 2.5. Use [GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst](/playground/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst-image-to-image) if you need the higher-precision tier instead.

Can I edit images with a GPT Image API on Muapi today?

Yes. [GPT Image 2 Image to Image](/playground/gpt-image-2-image-to-image) and GPT Image 2.5 (Flare and Sunburst) editing are all live on Muapi today.

How do I start using this on Muapi?

Create a free Muapi account and API key, then call the `gpt-image-2.5-flare-image-to-image` endpoint directly — no waitlist or approval step required.
