Start from the job, not the model menu.

Image generation API use cases

Workflows for SaaS, ecommerce, marketing, and portraits — review loops, safe defaults, and where humans still matter before a generated asset ships.

How to use these guides

Design the review loop before you chase another model name.

The real unit of work is an approved asset — listing shot, campaign concept, avatar option. Map who prompts, who reviews, how many variants you need, and which failures must never auto-retry.

01

Acceptance

Define “usable” before you optimize generation volume.

02

Human review

Put eyes where brand truth, identity, or publication risk peaks.

03

Economics

Measure cost per accepted deliverable, including discards.
