API questions

How is the API priced?

By volume. We quote per image based on how many images you process a month, so you pay for what you run and nothing else.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every approved team gets a trial key with enough credits to test the API on your own images before committing.

What are the rate limits?

Limits are set per account to match your expected volume, and raised as you grow. Tell us your peak load when you get in touch.

What happens to the images we send?

They are processed in isolation and never used to train AI models. Everything the API returns is yours. Retention can be agreed to fit your own data policy.

Which output formats are supported?

Full resolution transparent PNGs and WebP. Tell us if your pipeline needs custom masks or background colors.
