Technology and SaaS

Add image processing, extraction, and counting without stitching together more vendors

Call selected production endpoints for visual assets and structured results, while keeping your own product, workflow logic, and customer experience.

Industry challenges

The operational problem starts before the first edit

The integration cost is not only the first endpoint call. A production product must also handle authentication, paid usage, retries, validation, errors, and honest capability boundaries.

01

Each specialist vendor adds another contract

Image processing, OCR, and counting can otherwise require separate authentication, billing, and error models.

02

Paid requests must be retry-safe

A lost response cannot become a duplicated charge or an uncontrolled second operation.

03

Product and API parity is easy to overstate

A broad web app does not mean every PDF, OCR, batch, or editor capability is a public endpoint.

End-to-end workflow

A production integration path

Start with the endpoint that matches the output contract, then design your own review, storage, retry, and customer-facing status behavior around it.

  1. 1

    Choose the response type

    Use `/process` for a transformed image asset, `/extract` for supported structured extraction, or `/count` for visual counts.

  2. 2

    Create and protect the API key

    Generate the account key in settings and keep it on the server side of your product.

  3. 3

    Validate the source

    Check product-specific file and parameter requirements before submitting a paid request.

  4. 4

    Send an idempotent request

    Use a unique Idempotency-Key for each logical operation and reuse it only for an exact retry.

  5. 5

    Handle the synchronous result

    Store the returned processed asset reference or structured result inside your own workflow.

  6. 6

    Surface real failure states

    Handle validation, credit, conflict, rate-limit, processing, and temporary-availability responses explicitly.

API and automation

The current public API contract

API-key authentication, Pro access checks, usage credits, rate limiting, request validation, required idempotency, clear errors, and refund-on-failure are implemented. Calls are synchronous.

Input
A server-side API key, unique idempotency key, multipart file, and endpoint-specific operation or kind.
Processing
Pixoate validates access and credits, runs the operation, records spend, and refunds a failed processing attempt.
Output
A processed asset reference or endpoint-specific structured JSON, including credits spent.

Workflow value

Integration measures worth instrumenting

Start from your current baseline, run the workflow, and measure these operational indicators in your own environment.

Successful operations by endpoint
Separate transformed assets, extraction results, and counts in product analytics.
Retry and conflict rate
Use idempotency keys correctly and distinguish an in-flight duplicate from a fresh request.
Credit failures and rate limits
Surface actionable billing and throttling states instead of a generic processing error.
Manual exceptions
Route uncertain images or extraction results to a review path inside your own product.

Product evidence

Capabilities you can validate directly in Pixoate

Three maintained endpoints

`GET /me` reports access and balance; `/process`, `/extract`, and `/count` handle the current paid operations.

Required idempotency

Each paid request uses an 8–128 character Idempotency-Key and a replay-safe fingerprint.

Credit refund on failure

The current controller refunds the operation when processing fails after spend is recorded.

Practical answers

SaaS API integration questions

Which API endpoints are public?

The current surface provides `GET /api/v1/me`, image processing at `POST /api/v1/process`, supported extraction at `POST /api/v1/extract`, and object/people counting at `POST /api/v1/count`.

Does the API support PDF processing?

A broad PDF product suite exists in the web application, but a public PDF-processing API is not advertised today.

How do retries work?

Every paid request requires an Idempotency-Key. Reuse a key only for an exact retry. A different payload under the same key or a duplicate already in flight returns a conflict.

Are asynchronous jobs or webhooks available?

No. The current public processing endpoints are synchronous and do not expose public status or webhook contracts.

How is API access billed?

API access currently requires an eligible Pro plan. Processing uses credits purchased separately; a subscription unlock does not imply an included unlimited credit balance.

Are official SDKs or a sandbox available?

No official SDK or separate sandbox is advertised. Use the documented HTTP endpoints and keep the API key in your server-side environment.

Product limits and access can change by route and plan. The linked product, pricing, and developer pages remain the final source.
