MAI-Image-2.6 is the best image editing model on AA. We now hold 3 of the top 5 leaderboard positions. 

Try it today here: playground.microsoft.ai/chat

Artificial Analysis@ArtificialAnlys

Microsoft's MAI-Image-2.6-Preview lands at #1 on the Artificial Analysis Image Editing Leaderboard and takes #2 in Text to Image

MAI-Image-2.6 is the newest model in Microsoft AI's MAI-Image family, announced August 10. Microsoft highlights stronger text rendering, better portraits and 3D imagery, and more polished commercial and photorealistic outputs. Like the MAI-Image-2.5 family, it handles both text to image generation and image editing.

In the Artificial Analysis Image Arena, MAI-Image-2.6-Preview debuts at #1 on the Image Editing Leaderboard, ahead of Microsoft's own MAI-Image-2.5-Pro, Reve 2.1, and OpenAI's GPT Image 2, and giving Microsoft the top two spots on the board. In Text to Image it takes #2, behind only OpenAI's GPT Image 2 and ahead of Reve 2.1. On our refreshed Text to Image taxonomy, MAI-Image-2.6-Preview takes the top spot on 5 of the 19 category leaderboards (Material, Knowledge, Frontier, Retail & Ecommerce, and Marketing & Advertising), ahead of GPT Image 2, which leads every other category.

MAI-Image-2.6 extends a rapid run of strong image releases from Microsoft AI. MAI-Image-2.5 debuted at #2 in Text to Image in June. MAI-Image-2.5-Pro, launched July 23, took #1 in Image Editing when we published our results last week. MAI-Image-2.6 now takes that top spot from its own sibling, and sits at #2 in Text to Image against MAI-Image-2.5-Pro's #8.

MAI-Image-2.6 is available in the MAI Playground and in Private Preview on Microsoft Foundry.

Congratulations to @MicrosoftAI on the release!

Artificial Analysis@ArtificialAnlys

Microsoft's MAI-Image-2.5-Pro debuts at #1 on the Artificial Analysis Image Editing Leaderboard, and takes the #7 spot in Text to Image

MAI-Image-2.5-Pro is Microsoft AI's quality-focused image model, launched July 23 in preview on Microsoft Foundry. It joins MAI-Image-2.5 and MAI-Image-2.5-Flash in a family Microsoft positions as covering the quality-speed-cost curve, so builders can pick the point that fits their job. Pro sits at the quality end: Microsoft describes it as its highest-fidelity image model to date, aimed at hero imagery, detailed editing, and precise in-image text rendering.

In the Artificial Analysis Image Arena, MAI-Image-2.5-Pro debuts at #1 on the Image Editing Leaderboard, surpassing Reve 2.1, GPT Image 2, and Microsoft's own MAI-Image-2.5. In Text to Image it lands at #7.

On Microsoft Foundry, MAI-Image-2.5-Pro is priced per token: $5 per 1M text input tokens, $8 per 1M image input tokens, and $106 per 1M image output tokens, which works out to roughly $108.5 per 1k 1024x1024 images. That compares to $48 per 1k images for MAI-Image-2.5 and $20 per 1k for MAI-Image-2.5-Flash.

MAI-Image-2.5-Pro is available in preview on Microsoft Foundry across seven global-standard regions, and can be tried out in the MAI Playground.

Congratulations to @MicrosoftAI on the release!

As @satyanadella says, we're making great progress on shipping MAI models that are higher quality, faster and cheaper across MSFT.

In PowerPoint, our image model cut costs 84% compared with GPT-Image-2. 

In OneDrive, it lifted save rates 26% and cut latency by ~25%. It's also the default model in Bing delivering great quality and performance.  

In Dragon Copilot, our transcription model now covers 58 languages and halves the error rate on multilingual clinical transcription.

And of course the flights we have in motion on GitHub and Excel will no doubt be huge too!

Mustafa Suleyman (@mustafasuleyman) — Fri, 26 Jun 2026 18:24:27 GMT

Shaping our culture at Microsoft AI is one of the most important responsibilities I have. Keeping our team lean and talent dense is critical to our success. It's something I've thought very carefully about over the years.

I thought I'd share a few of the principles we ask everyone in the team to sign up to.

Everything below flows from one conviction: a disciplined, evidence-based, careful methodology compounds faster than heroic and chaotic improvisation. We don't always get it right but this is what we strive for:

- Scientific rigor above all else. We set hypotheses, rigorously ablate, and make data-driven decisions.

- Constantly think simple. Simple methods scale best. No recipe changes unless deeply justified.

- Know your data. Data is our lifeblood. No data black boxes. Every person is responsible for every token they add to the model.

- Know your evals. No narratives without numbers. Production evals and trust internal metrics, over academic benchmarks.

- Don't celebrate results prematurely. Maintain healthy skepticism. Check for reward hacking. Never cherry pick results.

- Always document everything. Positive and negative results are equally critical. Label every plot and axes. Summarize hypotheses and conclusions. Don't use jargon.

- Be precise and use neutral language. Describe situations accurately without unnecessary emotional charge.

- Retrospectives drive everything. The culture and process flywheel is critical to our hill climbing machine. We constantly run Retros to iterate and improve.

- We’re an IC-first team. Management is a service, not the goal. We’re here to empower, unblock and accelerate the exceptional work of our world class ICs.

- User focus. We build our models for end users. Developing user empathy begins with us. We always strive to use our own models first so we can hill climb for our users.

- Take ownership for execution. Report issues, provide logs for debugging. First try to fix things yourself. And see it right through to completion.

The quality of our thinking determines the quality of our models.

We're hiring. Check out open roles here: microsoft.ai/careers/

Artificial Analysis@ArtificialAnlys

Microsoft's MAI-Image-2.5 ranks #2 in Text to Image and #3 in Image Editing in the Artificial Analysis Image Arena, behind only OpenAI's image models

The latest addition to the MAI Image family is capable of handling both text to image generation and image editing, up to a maximum output resolution of roughly 1MP at flexible aspect ratios with a 32K token context.

MAI-Image-2.5 is one of the strongest image models we have tested, ranking #2 in Text to Image behind only OpenAI's GPT Image 2. Its Image Editing capabilities rank at #3 on our leaderboard, ranking just behind OpenAI’s image models, with performance comparable to Google’s Nano Banana 2.

MAI-Image-2.5-Flash, the faster, lower-cost variant, lands at #8 in Text to Image and #6 in Image Editing.

MAI-Image-2.5 is priced at $48 per 1k images and MAI-Image-2.5-Flash at $20 per 1k images on the Foundry API. Both are also available in the MAI Playground, and MAI-Image-2.5 is available to users in PowerPoint and OneDrive.

Congratulations to @MicrosoftAI on the release!

Agreed. We have to be very careful about this. I published an article in @Nature recently making similar arguments.

Last week, Argentina’s President Milei announced a new legal category for non-human corporations – companies run by #AI agents or robots. Like traditional corporations, they would be granted legal personhood. This could generate enormous new wealth, but very worryingly, it would also hand AIs an all-purpose key that grants access to our financial, economic and political systems.

There are no shortcuts to the frontier. Disciplined, patient, meticulous attention to detail is critical. To give everyone a good sense of our progress we've published a very detailed technical report (109 pages!) outlining how we trained MAI-Thinking-1 and what we learned along the way. microsoft.ai/wp-content/upl…

It's exceptionally strong in reasoning and SWE benchmarks. I’m super proud that it’s at 53% on SWE-Bench Pro, placing it right alongside Opus 4.6 on one of the toughest coding benchmarks. We have a lot more work to do as we get it into production and climb on more real world use cases.

We also launched six other world class models. Here's the line up:  microsoft.ai

- MAI-Transcribe-1.5 is the best transcription model in the world, with SOTA accuracy across 43 languages, beating out Gemini and OpenAI’s flagship transcription models. It offers the best accuracy, 5x faster than rival models. It's now in Microsoft Foundry, where it’s the fastest, most efficient and most cost‑effective transcription model of any hyper-scaler.

- MAI‑Voice‑2 our latest speech generation model, with native‑sounding delivery and fine‑grained emotional control, available in 15 languages with lots more coming soon. And MAI-Voice‑2‑Flash provides the best value and speed for ultra latency‑sensitive Voice Agents.

- MAI-Code-1-Flash is our new inference efficient coding model, especially tuned for VS Code and GitHub Copilot CLI. It's a brilliant, fast model at just 5B actives, and delivers 51% on SWE-Bench Pro. Super excited to get it into prod and climb on more real-world tasks.

- MAI-Image-2.5 and Flash are two super strong models that deliver a step change in quality and surpass Nano Banana 2 on the image editing leaderboard. MAI-Image-2.5 delivers super strong performance on H100s, enabling deployment on existing infrastructure, with flexibility to scale across GB200/GB300 systems.

We're hiring! We're a lean, fast-moving lab made of some of the world's most talented minds. Come join us as we work on our next generation of models!
