Question 1

What is ImagePipeline?

Accepted Answer

ImagePipeline is an image AI API for ecommerce and fashion teams. It turns flat-lay product shots into on-model imagery, runs virtual try-on, replaces and relights backgrounds, and generates ad creative, all through one REST API.

Question 2

How do I authenticate?

Accepted Answer

From the browser, use a Clerk-issued bearer token. Server-to-server, send an API key in the X-API-Key header. Full details are in the authentication docs.

Question 3

Is generation synchronous or asynchronous?

Accepted Answer

Asynchronous. You send a POST to start a job, then either poll its status endpoint or receive a webhook when the render completes.

Question 4

Do you store my images?

Accepted Answer

No. Inputs and outputs are processed in-memory and are not retained after a job completes, and we do not train AI models on your content.

Question 5

Is the output licensed for commercial use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every render ships with a commercial license and embedded C2PA provenance. Enterprise adds full IP indemnification.

Question 6

Which languages and SDKs are supported?

Accepted Answer

The API is callable from any language over HTTPS, with typed Python and JavaScript/TypeScript SDKs for a drop-in integration.

Question 7

How does pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Pro is $49/month and Scale is $199/month, with a custom Enterprise tier. One credit is roughly one successful generation. Editing and background operations cost less, video and 3D cost more, and failed jobs are never charged.

Question 8

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Create an account, grab an API key, and run your first generation in minutes by following the Quickstart.
