Token-based pricing; actual per-image cost varies with prompt/output token usage.

OpenAI's official API pricing page is the best first-party public source I could identify for the image-generation product; it lists token-based pricing rather than a fixed per-image rate. The exact 'GPT Image 2' name is not surfaced on the pricing page, so this is recorded as the OpenAI image product pricing reference.
