OpenAI Batch API Now Supports GPT Image Models at Half Cost

· Updated

OpenAI's Batch API now accepts image generation and editing requests, supporting gpt-image-1.5, chatgpt-image-latest, gpt-image-1, and gpt-image-1-mini. You submit up to 50,000 jobs in a JSONL file, and results come back within 24 hours through a separate rate limit pool - no competing with your sync traffic.

Until now, generating images at scale meant hitting rate limits or paying full price per call. Batch processing at half the cost changes the economics for teams building visual pipelines - product catalogs, dataset augmentation, automated marketing. The dedicated rate pool is equally important: bulk work no longer degrades your production API.

Switch your bulk image pipelines to the Batch API via the /v1/images/generations or /v1/images/edits endpoints - the same models and parameters work as in sync mode.
