GPT Image-1
GPT Image 1 is the first generation of OpenAI's image model, still available in FluxoKit's browser studio at 5 credits per image. It remains a competent commercial generator with the family's prompt obedience, and this page shows exactly what it still does well against its successors on plans from $14 per month.

Real generations with GPT Image-1
Overview
GPT Image 1 launched the OpenAI image family, and the honest question in 2026 is whether it is still worth using. FluxoKit keeps it available at 5 credits per image with the same browser studio and credit pricing as every successor, so the answer is testable rather than nostalgic.
Every image on this page is a real, unretouched GPT Image 1 generation with the exact prompt printed under it, on the same brand brief its successors ran. Legacy-tier reviews go stale; identical-prompt galleries do not.
What you can build with GPT Image 1
GPT Image 1 still produces solid commercial scenes: products, interiors, simple promos. Where it shows its age is fine texture, complex typography, and dense composition, exactly the areas the 1.5 and 2 pages demonstrate on the same prompts.
It earns a place in workflows that were prompt-tuned against it and depend on its specific rendering character. For new work, its own siblings outprice or outperform it.
Where GPT Image 1 still earns its credits
Teams with locked prompt libraries built on GPT Image 1 keep consistency by staying on it. Everyone else should read this page as the baseline panel of a three-tier comparison: at 5 credits it costs MORE than GPT Image 1.5 at 4, so the successor is the default and this page is the receipts.
GPT Image 1 vs GPT Image 1.5 and GPT Image 2
One credit cheaper and better on text and texture. For new work, 1.5 supersedes 1 outright; this page exists for the comparison receipts.
The flagship at 7 credits is the finishing tier: strongest typography and photorealism in the family.
Same 5-credit price, completely different character: Seedream grades stylized and cinematic where GPT Image 1 stays plainly commercial.

Frequently asked questions
›Is GPT Image 1 still worth using?
Only if your prompt library was tuned against it and rendering consistency matters more than cost. GPT Image 1.5 costs less at 4 credits and performs better. The identical-prompt examples on this page and the 1.5 page are the evidence to decide with.
›How much does GPT Image 1 cost per image?
GPT Image 1 costs 5 credits per generation on FluxoKit at the default medium quality. Plans start at $14 per month and every generation shows its exact cost in your history.
›What is the difference between GPT Image 1, 1.5, and 2?
Same prompt language, ascending finish. 1 is the original at 5 credits, 1.5 improves texture and text at 4 credits, and 2 is the flagship at 7 credits with the strongest typography and photorealism. All three pages share one brand brief for direct comparison.
