It supports up to 4K outputs, has significantly improved fine-detail rendering, and is the strongest GPT Image variant for compound multi-step edits. Pricing scales with output resolution and quality settings, at high fidelity it's one of the more expensive options on FAL, but for hero shots and final assets the quality justifies it.
