Cherry Z-Image Spicy and Rogue are live at $0.006 per image

Cherry Z-Image Spicy and Cherry Z-Image Rogue are now available to eligible ModelRush users in the Playground and API. Both generate an image from a text prompt, and both have the same public price: $0.006 USD per image (0.6 US cents).

Cherry Z-Image Spicy is the regular Spicy option for portraits, illustrations, and everyday visual experiments. Cherry Z-Image Rogue adds another creative direction: try realistic looks or ask for anime-style artwork in your prompt. The result depends on the prompt, so use the same brief with both models to see which direction fits.

We know many of you want to make more with Z-Image. We also know that when every image has a cost, it is easy to stop after the first result instead of trying the next prompt, comparing styles, or making the variations your idea deserves. We do not want the price of an experiment to be the reason an idea stays unfinished.

That is why we kept talking with Cherry AI about a more affordable way to offer these models. Our partnership made it possible to bring Cherry Z-Image Spicy and Rogue to ModelRush at $0.006 per image. Thank you to the Cherry AI team for working with us and for sharing our belief that creators should have room to try again. This launch is the beginning of our partnership; we plan to bring more models together.

We hope this price gives you room to use Z-Image more often, whether you are finding a character's look, testing a product concept, or building an image workflow. If more of you use these models, we will take that demand back to Cherry AI and keep working to secure further discounts. We cannot promise a new price or a date today, but we will keep advocating for one.

This is a comparison of public per-generation prices on September 22, 2026—not a claim that the models produce identical output. The existing modelrush/z-image-spicy Standard option has not changed price.

At these published rates, either Cherry option is about 44.1% lower per image than the existing Standard option. For 1,000 images, the difference is $4.725. The live pricing table below this article reads the current billing Registry, so check it before a large run if prices later change.

We are also testing video models with Cherry AI. They are not ready to launch yet, but we hope to share them soon. We will announce availability, capabilities, and pricing once testing is complete.

Start with one prompt, then compare the outputs in the Playground. Choose Spicy for a familiar Spicy image workflow; try Rogue when you want to explore a different look, including anime-inspired directions. Both model IDs work with the image-generation API: cherry/zimage-spicy and cherry/zimage-rogue.
