Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman launches MAI-Image-2.5, debuting at third on the Arena text-to-image leaderboard
The model outperformed its predecessor, MAI-Image-2, by 72 points.
Meet MAI-Image-2.5 - ranked third on the @arena text-to-image leaderboard. It's another great advance in quality. And with Build just a week away, there's much more to come from the @MicrosoftAI team. I can't wait.

Pleased to report that the model gets it right where it really matters: strong visual reasoning across objects, scene structure, lighting, scale, and spatial relationships, helping turn simple directions into polished images.

We know that professional grade creative work requires getting every detail right: script on a poster, labels on packaging, the way light falls across a scene. With MAI-Image-2.5, words are sharper, layouts hold together better, scenes feel more deliberate and brand visuals land with more impact and more polish.
