Ideogram 2.0
Ideogram 2.0 is the August 2024 image-model snapshot, not a proven 2026 default. Rechecked 2026-08-17: the product still lives at ideogram.ai. The marketing site was Cloudflare-blocked in this pass, so this page does not invent Ideogram 3.x names and does not invent a Free/Pro dollar table. Treat 2.0 as a historical version that was known for readable text and Magic Prompt. Recheck the in-app model picker before you call it current.
Compare GPT Image 2 if you wanted OpenAI stills, Nano Banana if you wanted Gemini's official image surface, and FLUX 3 if you wanted Black Forest Labs' live multimodal model.
Key Features
- A version name, not the company: 2.0 shipped in August 2024 with leftover claims around text-in-image and Magic Prompt. That is a changelog, not a 2026 crown.
- No invented later SKU: We did not load a public current-model list. Do not paste Ideogram 3 as if we verified it.
- No invented seats: Recheck the signed-in Ideogram plan screen. Dollars stay off this table.
- Not an audited "strongest text" bench: Drop leftover industry-best copy.
Use Cases
- People who still see 2.0 in old prompts and need the date attached.
- People comparing a 2024 Ideogram snapshot to GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana.
- People who were about to paste an unaudited later-version name.
Limitation: Cloudflare blocked the public HTML. Recheck the live picker and pricing yourself.

If a leftover blog still says 2.0 is the latest Ideogram, treat this page as the correction.

- Open ideogram.ai and the in-app model menu.
- Do not assume 2.0 is still selected.
- Recheck GPT Image 2 or Nano Banana if you wanted a 2026 stills catalog.

Hook OpenCode Go into Codex on Windows. Do Not Open a Second Toolkit.
A ChatGPT-signed Codex desktop app still shows mostly GPT in the picker. On Windows, enable only OpenCode Go and the Grok, GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, and MiniMax models you already pay for appear in the same selector. Keys stay local. Native GPT stays put.
What Locks Codex Is the Picker, Not the Models
You already pay for OpenCode Go, Grok, and Z.ai, but the Codex picker still shows mostly GPT. The community project codex-router does not teach another install ritual. It puts subscriptions you already bought back into the selector, keeps keys on the machine, and leaves native GPT alone.
