Browse this task →| Criterion | APPLORE Image generation 92/100 Seven-aspect task score APPLORE demonstrates top-tier instruction adherence and rendering precision in the image generation benchmark. Powered by GPT Image 2.5, it achieved perfect scores across text rendering ("REALTEST 2026"), color/quantity binding (3 apples, 2 blue mugs), and 5-finger robot hand anatomy (65/65). New accounts receive 10 trial credits, and 5 credits were used to generate and export a native 1024x1024 unwatermarked PNG. With transparent credit deduction and an ~15s generation latency, it represents a highly reliable tool for icon and graphic design. Tested export 1024 × 1024 · PNG Historical test · 2026-10-28 | Magic Studio (AI Art Generator) Image generation 44/100 Seven-aspect task score The AI Art flow quickly generates and downloads 1024px JPEG images without a card gate; previews omit the exported bottom-right watermark, and text, object counts and hand constraints failed on this prompt.

| Fixture findings | 100% accurate text spelling, zero color bleeding across specified objects, structurally sound 5-finger robotic hand, and native 1024x1024 unwatermarked PNG export. | The brass robot and wooden table are recognizable, but the sign lacks the required text, two blue mugs are missing and the five-finger right hand is not met. |
| Original historical observation | Outstanding performance with GPT Image 2.5: exact text spelling, 3 apples and 2 mugs with zero color bleeding, sound 5-finger robot hand anatomy, and native 1024x1024 PNG export (2.55MB). | First native export from the AI Art path using the full standard prompt (1024x1024 JPEG, 0.93s median network-observed server wait): brass robot and dark wooden table are present (structure 10/20), two red apples and one yellow-green apple appear without the two blue mugs (count/color 7/20), and the wooden sign lacks legible REALTEST 2026 text (0/25); the exported file adds a bottom-right MagicStudio watermark absent in the preview. |
