GPT Image 2.5 Flare and Sunburst now available on AI Gateway
Vercel AI Gateway adds GPT Image 2.5 Flare for faster iteration and Sunburst for tighter composition control. Both support generation, reference-based edits, and transparent backgrounds.
AI Gateway now exposes **openai/gpt-image-2.5-flare** and **openai/gpt-image-2.5-sunburst**. Both generate and edit images, accept references, support detailed layouts and transparent backgrounds, and can preserve surrounding elements during targeted edits.
Use **Flare for faster iteration** and switch to **Sunburst for tighter control** over composition and detail. The same gateway also offers usage and cost tracking, retries, failover, budgets, and routing rules.

Use **Flare for faster iteration** and switch to **Sunburst for tighter control** over composition and detail. The same gateway also offers usage and cost tracking, retries, failover, budgets, and routing rules. Sunburst takes longer to generate, while the material provides no latency, quality, or cost comparison between the models. Provider pricing is passed through without inference markup or a platform fee, including BYOK requests.
This adds an explicit speed-versus-control routing choice within one image-model family, making Gateway selection more actionable than candidates that merely establish another available route. It also reinforces a common generation, reference, and targeted-edit interface, but provides no evidence that either variant outperforms existing Gateway image models or quantifies the tradeoff.
