What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Adopt with guardrails

Why
Top of every public leaderboard at launch with <10s, 20%-cheaper generation makes it the strongest managed editing/text-render option, but closed-API lock-in and named script/face limits require routing rules rather than blanket adoption.
Next
Wire gpt-image-1.5 as a managed fallback/A-option for English-text-heavy creatives and precise edits; cap spend at the medium tier (~$0.034/image) and avoid CJK/RTL-text and multi-face compositions; keep an open-weight option for cost/sovereignty.
