Image Providers
All image generation and editing models currently available in Hylope, organized by provider.
Picking an image model comes down to what you're optimizing for: raw prompt-following, precise multi-reference editing, output resolution, or speed. The tables below break down every model by provider so you can match one to the job, whether you're working in Image Generation, Image Editing, or a related create mode (Previz, Product Swap, Avatar where listed).
Not sure where to start?
Nano Banana 2 (Google Gemini) is the default across most modes — a solid all-around balance of quality, speed, and cost. Reach for a specialist below when you need something it isn't built for, like Nano Banana Pro's higher input-reference count or Seedream's native high-resolution output.
Every model is available on every paid plan — billing is per generation from your credit balance. Model coverage matches the in-app Image Gen / Edit pickers. For pricing, see the Pricing page.

No longer available for new generations
Google shut down Imagen 4 — you can't start a new job with it. Past Imagen generations still restore fine. For new work, use Gemini, Qwen, Seedream, Flux, or OpenAI instead.
