# Product quality comparison

Generated on 2026-09-18 through `generateMakeover`, the product's own AI Gateway integration. These are unmodified JPEG outputs, not images from an unrelated illustration tool. Source evidence: `output/pro-quality-2026-09-18/low.json` and `medium.json`.

- Model: `openai/gpt-image-2`
- Format: JPEG, 1024 × 1024 (1:1)
- Configurations: `gpt-image-2/low/1:1`, `gpt-image-2/medium/1:1`
- One independently generated image per setting, identical prompt, no reference images.
- No claim of a controlled seed, guaranteed improvement or preserved composition. Low is already useful in this example.
- High sample was attempted four times; each returned GatewayResponseError. The captured error on the last attempts was HTTP 500 / `Cannot connect to API: other side closed`. No High image is published or substituted.
