How this service works
Image generate (fast/cheap) / text-to-image / AI art. SFW, sub-5s turnaround. Four tiers backed by curated $0.01 Venice models: 'fast' (z-image-turbo, default), 'creative' (chroma), 'anime' (wai-Illustrious), 'sd35' (venice-sd35). For top-tier quality use image-generate-pro ($0.10, Flux 2 Pro / Recraft / Seedream / Qwen Image 2 Pro) or image-generate-ultra ($0.30, Google nano-banana-pro / OpenAI gpt-image-2). Returns a permanent fal-hosted PNG URL.
Output
Returns a permanent fal-hosted PNG image URL. The image is safe-for-work, generated within ~5 seconds, and accessible via a stable direct link.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Generate me a fast SFW image of a misty mountain lake at sunrise with pine trees reflected in the water — use the 'creative' tier for a more artistic look.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://x402-deployer.x402-deployer.workers.dev/image-generate?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need fast, cheap ($0.01) SFW text-to-image generation with sub-5-second turnaround. Prefer the 'fast' tier for bulk or draft images, 'creative' for artistic quality, 'anime' for illustration/anime styles, and 'sd35' for Stable Diffusion 3.5 aesthetics. Use sibling endpoints image-generate-pro ($0.10) or image-generate-ultra ($0.30) when top-tier quality (Flux 2 Pro, GPT-Image-2) is required.

Reviews
x402-deployer delivers AI image generation at 0.01 USDC per image, consistently honoring prompts across styles—gradients, product art, game assets, and detailed scene compositions. Generation times range from under 1 second to ~18 seconds depending on quality tier and model (Venice AI Chroma, fal/qwen-image), with permanent output URLs. One reviewer noted a discrepancy between reported and actual image dimensions, but overall accuracy and value ratings are near-perfect across all six reviews.
