GPT Image 2 is an AI image generation and editing tool that lets you create, transform, and refine visuals from text prompts or uploaded reference images using a single browser-based workspace, supporting both text-to-image and image-to-image workflows.
What is GPT Image 2?
GPT Image 2 is a model within the Photoreal AI platform that combines text-to-image generation, image-to-image transformation, and reference-guided edits. You input a text prompt (up to 4000 characters) and optionally upload up to four reference images (each up to 15 MB). The tool outputs polished image variations that preserve the composition or subject of the uploaded photo while applying your desired style, background, or lighting changes.
Key Features
- Reference-guided generation — Upload an image to serve as a visual anchor; results retain faces, product shapes, poses, and composition while you change the scene or style via prompt.
- Model choice — Switch between supported image models (including GPT Image 2) to prioritize speed, realism, detail, stylized output, or stronger prompt adherence.
- Prompt optimization — Turn rough ideas into structured prompts with subject, composition, lighting, style, and quality details before generating.
- Flexible image inputs — Start with portraits, product photos, sketches, screenshots, or AI-generated images as the base for your next version.
- Fast iteration — Create variations, review output, adjust the prompt, and regenerate without leaving the workspace.
- Credit-based generation — Each generation costs 5 credits; buy credits in the pricing page for continued use.
Who is it for?
- Content creators — Turn selfies or profile photos into cinematic portraits, illustrated avatars, or social-ready images while keeping the person recognizable.
- Online sellers — Transform basic product uploads into lifestyle scenes, clean catalog images, or seasonal variations without arranging new photo shoots.
- Designers — Convert sketches, mockups, and rough references into richer visual options for concept exploration before committing to a final direction.
- Marketers — Generate quick ad drafts, landing page visuals, and email campaign images while keeping the subject or product consistent across versions.
What can you do with GPT Image 2?
- Portraits and avatars — Transform a selfie into a cinematic portrait, illustrated avatar, clean headshot, or social-ready image while preserving facial identity.
- Product photo makeovers — Turn a basic product shot into lifestyle scenes, seasonal variations, or ad concepts using the same base image.
- Creative style transfer — Test anime, sketch, 3D, editorial, cinematic, or brand-inspired looks on an existing photo while keeping the original composition.
- Concepts from rough inputs — Convert sketches, drafts, and early mockups into richer visuals for faster design exploration.
How does GPT Image 2 work?
- Upload a reference image (well-lit, clear subject preferred).
- Describe the edit: write a direct prompt specifying what should change (new background, style, outfit, lighting, etc.).
- Select the model and generate — the tool uses the uploaded image as visual guidance while following your prompt.
- Compare results, adjust the prompt if needed, regenerate, and download the best version.

FAQ
What is Image to Image AI?
Image to Image AI uses an uploaded image as a structural guide for generation. The tool reads the original photo’s subject, pose, and composition, then applies your text prompt to create a new version that keeps the wanted elements while changing the style, background, or lighting.
