No overall score, winner or cost-versus-score frontier is calculated without comparable, attributable benchmark evidence. Different test configurations appear separately. Vendor capabilities are distinct from TokenRex API support.
— means no published value or no matching capability. Provider token limits are not tested gateway guarantees; TokenRex media controls and response formats are listed separately.

Sources and verification
Provider specifications describe the upstream model, not a guarantee of every feature through TokenRex. Prices come from the enabled catalog; benchmark results belong to the exact tested model.

Research notes (5)
- SVG is described by OpenAI but unavailable through the current image service.
- Official Standard rates per 1M tokens: $5 text input, $8 image input, $30 image output. Official cached rates: $1.25 text and $2 image; TokenRex does not currently offer verified cache discounts for this model, so normal input rates apply. No cached output rate.
- No exact-version independently sourced benchmark score was verified. Earlier functional tests are not benchmark rankings or guarantees of identity preservation.
- Raster sizes: multiples of 16, aspect ratio 1:3–3:1, at most 3840 per edge and 655,360–8,294,400 pixels. GIF has a separate total animation pixel budget; prefer auto.
- GIF requests use completed JSON; the Playground uses owner-scoped saved jobs. Polling and reopening never regenerate.
