GPT Image 2 API Pricing: Routes, Cost Per Image, and Budgets

Standard text-to-image and image-to-image cost $0.03 at 1K, $0.04 at 2K, and $0.06 at 4K. The text-to-image beta route is a flat $0.02 per image and uses a size field instead of aspect_ratio plus resolution. Ext output pricing ranges from $0.007 to $0.760 by quality and resolution; ext image-to-image also adds $0.015 for each reference image. Published HiAPI billing rules do not expose a prompt-cache discount or a lower batch unit price for these task routes. The controllable cost drivers are route, resolution, quality, reference-image count on ext edits, output volume, and paid reruns.
