Ideogram Launches 4.5 Image Model and Plans Open Weights Release

The AI startup has released a precise image editing tool capable of sequential modifications without introducing pixel shifts or color changes. Version 4.5 is now available through Ideogram's website, its API, and designated launch partners. The model allows users to modify a specific crop of a high resolution image without downsizing and stitch the edited section back into the original file.

Ideogram plans to release the model's open weights in the near future. Pricing for the tool ranges from 0.8 to 22 cents per image at 2K resolution. The update targets the elimination of artifact buildup that typically occurs in leading AI models during multi turn editing, which the company claims enables a more professional workflow for creative teams.
