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.

The feature FAQ confirms watermark-free transparent PNG/blurred-background downloads with a free account; replacing with a new background allows one free download per day, while premium backgrounds require a subscription. The pricing table says Limited without quantifying daily transparent-PNG limits. General AI credits or the one-daily replacement limit are not applied to transparent cutouts.
