Generate and edit images with precise scene control
MAI-Image-2.5 is a text-to-image and image editing model that handles localized edits, identity preservation, and text rendering. Available via Foundry and OpenRouter for developers building production image workflows.
MAI-Image-2.5 is Microsoft AI's new image generation and editing model, now ranked No. 2 on Arena's image-edit leaderboard and No. 3 for text-to-image as of June 1, 2026.
Most image models treat editing as regeneration swap one thing, risk breaking everything else. MAI-Image-2.5 approaches it differently: localized edits that understand scene context, so changing a background, replacing text, or adding an object doesn't degrade what you didn't touch.
🖼 Text-to-image generation with stronger prompt adherence and text rendering so your prompts produce what you actually described, not an interpretation of it
✂️ Localized edits across objects, backgrounds, and text without affecting the surrounding image
🧑 Face and identity consistency preserved across pose, expression, and viewpoint changes useful for product, portrait, and commercial workflows
⚡ MAI-Image-2.5-Flash for high-throughput, cost-sensitive pipelines at roughly half the output token cost
Built for developers and ML teams embedding image generation or editing into production apps where controllability, identity handling, and cost-performance tradeoffs all matter.
