Choose Sunburst for demanding image creation and precise edits. It is suited to campaign, brand and product visuals where the subject and small changes need closer review.
Why create with GPT Image 2.5?
What GPT Image 2.5 can help you create and edit
Preserve reference details
Upload a reference and name the faces, objects, places or layout to keep. Describe the new scene or style separately, then compare the result with the source.
Make focused edits
Ask to change a background, color, material, text area or individual object. State what should remain in place and inspect the surrounding details afterward.
Refine across multiple passes
Use the latest result as a reference for the next task. Change a small set of details each time so you can compare the subject, composition and earlier decisions.
Follow complex visual briefs
Break down multiple subjects, spatial relationships, text placement, style and transparency into clear instructions. Check the final wording and layout before use.
Use a sketch as a reference
Upload a drawing through the regular reference-image input and explain the intended layout or object positions. This is a reference-image method, not a separate Sketch tool.
Plan with a prompt template
Prepare a structured brief for a poster, product scene or social graphic, including layout, copy space and style, before submitting the prompt.
