Rejection Scenarios
Error message when a request is rejected:moderation_blocked error will be thrown in multi-image generation.
Therefore, it’s recommended to proactively avoid potential intellectual property (IP) or copyright issues to minimize the risk of system rejection and ensure smooth generation.
✍️ Key recommendations:
- Avoid direct use of copyrighted characters, logos, celebrity likenesses, etc.
- Consider using “style inspiration”, “creative reinterpretation”, or “generalized descriptions” instead
- If referencing specific elements, check whether they fall within the public domain
Practical Tips
2️⃣ GPT Image (Reverse)
To meet the strong expectations of our users, we have specially launched two reverse-engineered interfaces:gpt-4o-image and gpt-4o-image-vip. The VIP model offers superior performance and stability.Please note that reverse-engineered interfaces cannot guarantee full stability and may encounter
🕐 Queuing... status or generation failures. They are recommended only for trial experiences and functional testing.OpenAI’s official interface
gpt-image-1 has been released. Considering the cost of usage, the current reverse-engineered interfaces will be temporarily retained, with compatible calling methods provided for everyone.
Notes
Model and Pricing
| Model | Price ($/IMG) |
|---|---|
gpt-4o-image-vip | $0.009 |
gpt-4o-image | $0.005 |
Due to the rising maintenance costs of reverse-engineered interfaces, the price per call has been increased.

Compatibility with Official OpenAI API
If you prefer using the latest image generation method released by OpenAI, you can refer to the following implementation. Just keep these 3 points in mind:- Do not include the
qualityparameter — models likegpt-4o-image-vipandgpt-4o-imagehave it bundled internally. - The
usagefield (token tracking) is not supported. - The latest output returns Base64-encoded image data, and the current script already handles automatic saving.
