Usage-based pricing planned

The API is planned to use credits and monthly included usage. Heavy image, OCR, and PDF jobs may consume more credits depending on file size, pages, and provider cost.

Exact credit pricing is still in testing — not finalized.

Starter credits

Planned

For prototypes and testing.

Growth usage

Planned

For repeat business workflows.

Business / API

Planned

For higher limits, invoices, and support.

API privacy and processing model

Temporary processing

Files are processed for the requested job and should be deleted according to TTL rules.

Clear limits

File size, page count, timeout, and credit limits should be visible before jobs run.

No hidden AI

AI actions should be explicit, consent-based, and priced by action later.

Do not send files you do not own or have permission to process.

Frequently asked questions

Honest answers about API early access.

Is the API live today?

Not as a public production API. Background removal may be reachable through internal development gateways, but there are no public API keys or stable developer docs yet.

Which APIs are planned first?

Background removal is the first likely candidate, followed by PDF compression, conversion, and OCR endpoints as usage-based credits are defined.

Will there be API keys?

Yes, API keys are planned for authenticated access, rate limits, and usage tracking. They are not available from this page today.

How will files be stored?

Temporary storage with TTL deletion is planned. Files should be processed for the job duration only, then removed according to retention rules.

Will there be usage limits?

Yes. File size, page count, timeout, queue priority, and credit consumption limits are planned and should be visible before jobs run.

Can I use API for customer files?

Only if you have permission to process those files and your use complies with applicable privacy and data-handling requirements.

Are AI features included?

AI-powered actions should be explicit, opt-in where relevant, and credit-based later. They will not run hidden in the background.
