Clean studio product photo of three craft coffee bags standing side by side on a light oak shelf against a warm plaster wall. The bags are sage green, terracotta and cream, each with a minimalist label in crisp black type reading "MORNING RIDGE", "DESERT BLOOM" and "NORTH HARBOR", with a smaller line underneath each reading "Single Origin".

Pricing
Unit price $0.024 / megapixel
Billed by the actual pixels of each image; larger sizes and more images cost more. 1024×1024 is about 1 megapixel.
Typically about $0.024 per request at default settings.
Each request temporarily reserves $0.024; you are charged for actual usage, usually within a minute: any unused amount is released and any usage above it is charged to your balance, even if that takes it below zero; while your balance is below zero, new requests are paused until a top-up covers it.
Failed generations are not charged.

Response
The API returns a result or a pollable asynchronous task. See the examples and Schema below for the response mode and result fields.
Code examples
Async submission returns a task ID. Poll until status is completed, then retrieve the generated content from the result. Get your API key in the console.
# Use a new directory for each new generation. Rerunning here continues this task.
