Image Generation APIs

Image Generation APIs

Seamlessly integrate the most popular and powerful open-source and Hive-enhanced image generation models like Stable Diffusion XL and Flux Schnell.

Built-in Best-In-Class Moderation

Before returning any set of images, we first run those images through our industry-leading visual moderation model in order to prevent violent, sexually explicit, or otherwise harmful results.If the generated images do not pass this moderation step, the API call will fail and an error message will be returned in place of a normal response.

*Image Generation Steps
  • Image Generation prices above assume a default number of Inference Steps per image. The default inference steps for SDXL and SDXL Enhanced is 20. The default inference steps for Flux Schenell and Flux Schenell Enhanced is 4.
  • The number of steps can be changed by the user and the price will scale linearly with an increase in steps. Actual cost = Price per image * number of images * max(1, selected inference steps / default inference steps). Setting a lower inference step count does not lower the price per image.
