Google has officially begun rolling out its cutting-edge text-to-image model, Imagen 4, making it available for free, albeit for a limited time, exclusively through AI Studio. This marks a significant leap forward in generative AI, promising enhanced image creation capabilities for users.

The tech giant announced the immediate availability of its state-of-the-art model, emphasizing that while the initial access is free, this complimentary period will not last indefinitely. Imagen 4 represents a substantial upgrade from its predecessors, delivering remarkable improvements in image quality, particularly in its ability to accurately render text within generated images.

Google is offering two distinct versions of the model: Imagen 4 and Imagen 4 Ultra. Imagen 4 is designed for general image generation tasks, offering high quality and versatility. While currently free, it will eventually be priced at $0.04 per output image. For those demanding the absolute best, Imagen 4 Ultra is the flagship model, boasting superior precision in following complex text prompts and delivering even higher-fidelity results, outperforming many competitors. This premium version will be priced at $0.06 per output image once the free period concludes.

Currently, Google’s Gemini AI does not have direct access to Imagen 4. However, the company has confirmed plans to integrate Imagen 4 for paid Gemini users in the coming weeks, further expanding the model’s reach and utility within Google’s AI ecosystem.
