  • 1536x1024
• Offers three quality tiers (Low, Medium, High) to optimize for:
  • Cost efficiency
  • Speed
  • Maximum detail

4. Multiple Pricing Models

• Pay-per-token for multimodal input:
  • Text input tokens
  • Image input tokens
• Pay-per-image generation for final output:
  • Low, Medium, and High quality tiers
• Enables businesses to balance cost and output needs.
