OpenAI Bildmodell

OpenAI's image model creates and edits images from text descriptions, including work on existing source images. It is not a tool for file work but for your own external presentation: illustrations for client information, diagrams, graphics for talks. Procured via Azure the contractual chain is closed, because the confidentiality line signed there covers the models sold by Azure and therefore this one too. What has to be borne in mind is the delivered state: abuse monitoring is active, and with image models the storage of flagged content also covers uploaded source images.

Through us once the provider clears it

The confidentiality agreement under section 203 of the German Criminal Code is signed. We set the route up without storage at the provider (zero retention) once the provider has committed to it - at Microsoft through the exception from abuse monitoring, which usually takes months. Until then, storage and review by the provider are not ruled out.

What it is good for

  • Image generation and editing from text descriptions, including changes to existing source images
  • Evidenced in the EU, under the same contractual line as the other models sold by Azure
  • Usable for the firm's external presentation without switching route

Where it stops

  • None of the seven task classes in this catalogue - the entry documents the coverage position, it is not a recommendation for use
  • Evidenced in the EU only via Poland or Sweden (as of 2026-08-17)
  • Uploaded source images are subject to the same abuse monitoring as text: images from client matters belong in only with the same assessment

Status through us

The same model, procured differently, is a different legal position. The status above refers to procurement through us; processing takes place in a third country.

Which route carries it, with which instrument and under which condition, we set out in full to the firm before it commissions us - section 203(4) requires that the chain can be checked, not that it is published. The full matrix, with the sources behind every route, can be requested in the German catalogue after confirming your e-mail address, and we go through it in the conversation.

Is OpenAI Bildmodell the right fit?

We go through your tasks and the route that carries them - and say plainly where it does not.
