Use this when

  • You’re producing image variations at volume (A/B testing visuals, batch generation).
  • Unit cost matters more than maximum fidelity.
  • You want a sub-cent default for prototypes and stock-style assets.

​
Pick something else when

  • You need design-quality output (lighting, composition) → recraft-v4 (#1 HF Arena).
  • You need typography in the image → ideogram-v3 (text-in-image specialist).
  • You need photoreal hero shots with multi-reference → flux-2-pro (BFL flagship).

Example

curl -X POST https://kymaapi.com/v1/images/generations \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KYMA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "minimax-image-01",
    "prompt": "a cinematic sunset over a coastal cliff",
    "size": "1024x1024",
    "n": 1
  }'
The endpoint is async — POST returns 202 with a job_id; poll GET /v1/jobs/{id} until status is succeeded.
