Strengths & weaknesses

Strengths

  • Native 4K x 4K (16 MP) output with no upscaling step
  • Every element is addressable and editable on its own
  • Dense, legible in-image text, now extended to foreign scripts
  • Plans structure and spatial relationships before rendering dense scenes

Weaknesses

  • API status unclear (see notes)

The Reve API post (2026-07-14) says the "Reve 2.1 API" outputs "native 4K x 4K resolution", hence maxResolution 4096x4096. It names no model id or endpoint strings, so apiIds is empty. A search snippet attributed to Reve's help centre says the API was sunset on August 14, 2026 with credits refunded by Aug 31. I could not open that page (sign-in wall), so this is unverified. Reve's 2026-07-27 post ("A New Chapter") announces an OpenAI investment, says some research staff are joining OpenAI, and says Reve continues independently. Not on the AA text-to-image leaderboard (only the 2025 "Reve Image (Halfmoon)" is listed).
