Model Catalog

Pixapi exposes multiple model families behind one API key. Pick a model id, pass it in the OpenAI-compatible request body, and keep the rest of your integration stable while you compare providers.

Image models

Image generation uses POST /v1/images/generations. Image editing uses POST /v1/images/edits when the model supports input images. Use n, size, and optional controls such as quality. For large outputs or slower models, submit through /v1/async/images/generations or /v1/async/images/edits, then poll GET /v1/tasks/{id}.

Credit deduction

Gemini image requests are billed by selected model and output tier.

GPT Image 2 is billed by output size tier and quality. quality=auto is billed as high, and size=auto defaults to the 1K tier.

Size tierLong edgelowmediumhigh / auto
1K<= 1536px1414
2K<= 2048px21767
4K<= 3840px434133

Video models are billed as n × seconds × rate(resolution). See each model page for allowed seconds / resolution values.

Video generation is async-only. Use /v1/async/videos/generations and the Async Media Tasks flow for all video integrations.

Choosing a model

  • Use gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image for the fastest and lowest-cost Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Image workflows.
  • Use gemini-2.5-flash-image for legacy image-generation quick image output and editing workflows.
  • Use gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview when you need a balanced Gemini preview model with aspect-ratio control.
  • Use gemini-3-pro-image-preview when quality matters more than cost.
  • Use gpt-image-2 when prompt adherence, typography, custom size, or layout precision matters.
  • Use veo3.1-lite, veo3.1-fast, or veo3.1-quality when the output needs motion, camera direction, and video timing.
  • Use seedance-2 when you need audio sync, first/last frames, or multimodal references.
  • Use kling-3.0-turbo for lower-cost Kling clips, or kling-v3 / kling-v3-omni for higher quality.
  • Use wan2.6 / wan2.6-flash, grok-video-3, or happyhorse-1.1 for additional video providers on the same async endpoint.

Stable integration pattern

The endpoint usually stays the same for a media type. Switching models is normally a request-body change:

json
{
  "model": "gemini-3-pro-image-preview",
  "prompt": "A clean product hero image for a developer API platform",
  "n": 1,
  "size": "1:1"
}

Legacy image-generation fields are separated under Legacy transition format.
