What is GPT Image 2.6 Flare Edit?
GPT Image 2.6 Flare Edit is the faster of the two models OpenAI shipped with Images 2.6 on 2026-11-04. It edits from one or more reference images through OpenAI's image edit endpoint and keeps the 2.x strengths: accurate text, neutral colour and strong prompt adherence. 2.6 uses the same per-token rates as 2.5 but spends more tokens at the low and medium tiers (about 4.2x at low and 3.3x at medium), so a medium 2.6 edit costs roughly three times a medium 2.5 edit. At high, xhigh and max the two versions cost the same. Requests run against OpenAI directly, with fal.ai wired as a same-model fallback.
