Ideogram 4 Turbo AI Generator
Generated on PixelDojo with Ideogram 4 Turbo. Produced by PixelDojo's generation pipeline.
Ideogram 4 Turbo costs 1 credit per image and returned our portrait test prompt in about 36 seconds on August 26, 2026. It is the cheapest tier in the Ideogram 4.0 family and it did not crop in tight. It composed a full documentary scene, dock, boats, and all, and kept the fisherman's hands sharp exactly where the prompt asked. This page covers the price, the measured speed, what actually came back, and when to step up to a higher tier instead.

Inside the 1 credit turbo tier
Resolution is automatic by default
There is no aspect_ratio field on Ideogram 4.0. A resolution parameter set to None lets the model choose. Ours came back at 1792x2240, a tall 4:5 frame, unrequested but well suited to the subject.
What we saw in the output
A full-body shot of a man sitting on a wooden dock, working a knot into fishing netting with both hands, docked boats and another figure blurred behind him, overcast morning light rather than warm gold.
The scene, not just the face
The prompt asked for a portrait. Turbo answered with an environmental documentary shot: the whole dock, the boats, an enamel mug, coiled rope, and a second fisherman working in the background.
22 resolution presets available
Beyond the automatic default, the model accepts explicit resolutions from 1024x1024 up to 3328x1248 and their rotated pairs, covering square, landscape, and portrait framing.
Text-to-image only
Ideogram 4 Turbo does not edit an existing image. Send prompt or json_prompt, never both, and it generates from scratch every time.
One prompt, cheapest tier in the family. 1 credit, about 36 seconds, first result kept.
Why Choose Pixel Dojo for Ideogram 4 Turbo
Professional-quality results with cutting-edge AI technology
1 credit per image
The cheapest tier in the Ideogram 4.0 family. Resolution choice does not change the price.
About 36 seconds, measured
Timed on August 26, 2026 from request to finished file, default settings, no retries.
Sharp hands on the first try
The prompt's hardest instruction, weathered hands in focus, landed correctly without a second attempt.
How It Works
The exact steps we followed:
Pick the cheapest tier deliberately
Setting tier to turbo is what makes the request 1 credit instead of 2 or 3. The other input fields stay the same across every tier.
Leave resolution on automatic unless framing matters
We sent no resolution value. The model chose a tall 4:5 frame on its own and used the extra height for a full-body scene.
Run it in the app or over the API
Generate from the tool page, or POST the prompt to /api/v1/models/ideogram-v4-turbo/run. Ours took about 36 seconds and charged 1 credit.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about Ideogram 4 Turbo
What does Ideogram 4 Turbo cost?
1 credit per image. That price is fixed regardless of resolution, and the request returns one image per call.
How fast is Ideogram 4 Turbo?
About 36 seconds in our August 26, 2026 run, default settings, from submission to the finished file. Real turnaround moves with queue load.
Is Ideogram 4 Turbo worth using over Balanced or Quality?
For a documentary or editorial shot where a wider scene is welcome, yes. Ours cost 1 credit and finished in about 36 seconds. Balanced costs 2 credits and Quality costs 3, and both are tuned for tighter fidelity on detailed, text-heavy layouts.
What resolution does it output?
Resolution defaults to automatic and picked 1792x2240 for our run, a tall 4:5 frame. 21 other explicit resolutions are available, from 1024x1024 up to 3328x1248.
How do I call it from the API?
POST to /api/v1/models/ideogram-v4-turbo/run with your API key and a prompt. The same request shape works for every tier in the family, so switching from turbo to balanced or quality means changing one apiId string.
Does it edit an existing image?
No. Ideogram 4 Turbo is text-to-image only, generating from a prompt or a json_prompt. To edit a photo you already have, use the Image Editor tool instead.
