Price at the same setting
A start price answers a different question than the one you have. These are the tiers both models publish, matched setting for setting, in US dollars per billed unit with no conversion step in between.
These two bill on different tiers, so there is no row to line up. Each one's own published tiers are listed here instead.

About this comparison
Controls and limits
Every row here is read from the JSON Schema the endpoint validates against, so it matches what the API will really accept rather than a feature list written by hand.
Swipe horizontally to compare all fields.
| Controls and limits | Topaz Bloom | Topaz Gigapixel |
|---|---|---|
| Supported tasks | upscale | upscale |
| Resolution tiers | 2K · 4K · 8K | 2K · 4K · 8K |
| High-resolution tier | Yes | Yes |
| Execution | Submit, then poll or take the callback | Submit, then poll or take the callback |
| Request timeout | 30 minutes | 30 minutes |
| Availability | Live | Live |
Can I swap the model ID without changing the request body?
Request body, field by field
The task lifecycle is shared; the body is not. Each endpoint publishes its own JSON Schema and the API validates against that, so this is the list to reconcile before a switch.
- 4 fields appear in both request bodies under the same names. image_url, output_format, preset, resolution
- Only Topaz Bloom accepts: creativity, prompt.
- Topaz Gigapixel accepts no field the other one lacks.
- Topaz Bloom requires image_url.
- Topaz Gigapixel requires image_url.
- Both reject unknown fields outright, so a parameter left over from the other model comes back as a validation error instead of being quietly ignored.
Compare
Moving from one to the other
The model identifiers are topaz/bloom/upscale and topaz/gigapixel/upscale, and both go in the same field of the same request.
Both run the same way: submit the task, then poll it or take the callback. Queueing and retry logic carry over unchanged.
Both use the same submit-and-track flow, but their required inputs may differ. Check each model page before switching.
One key, one balance, one set of spend caps. Both bill to the same account in US dollars, and the per-key daily, monthly and lifetime limits apply to whichever one you call.
Questions developers ask
Which is cheaper, Topaz Bloom or Topaz Gigapixel?
Which is cheaper, Topaz Bloom or Topaz Gigapixel?
The two bill on different tiers, so there is no like-for-like row: Topaz Bloom starts at $0.36 / output images and Topaz Gigapixel at $0.12 / output images. Prices may change; check the estimate shown for your actual settings before submitting.
How long can a single request run?
Topaz Bloom allows 30 minutes per task and Topaz Gigapixel allows 30. Those are ceilings rather than typical times — most requests finish far sooner — but they are what your own client timeout has to survive.
