Introduction
Welcome to the Visionati API! You can use our API to analyze images and videos. You can fetch a variety of data including tags, descriptions, faces, brands, colors, and text. You can even scan YouTube and Vimeo videos!
The API runs on credits. Each image or frame of video requires 1-6 credits depending on the features and backends you request, that way simple queries are less expensive. You can easily buy additional credits at our API server.
For simple requests, for instance tags and nsfw, it would cost 1 credit. However, if you wanted every feature and backend activated, it would cost 6 credits.
Authentication
To authorize, use this code:
# You need to pass the correct header with each request.
curl "<API_ENDPOINT>"
-H "Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>"
Make sure to replace
<YOUR_API_KEY>with your API key.
Visionati uses API keys to allow access to the API. You can register an account at our API server.
Visionati expects for the API key to be included in all API requests to the server in a header that looks like the following:
Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>
Visionati
Analyze an Image/Video
# Sample call to analyze an image.
curl "https://api.visionati.com/api/fetch?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthoughts.greyh.at%2Fposts%2Fbreathe%2Fimages%2Fcover.webp"
-H "Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>"
The command above returns the following JSON. The second response below is returned if you request multiple images/videos.

The mandorla with its flame-like patterning radiates out from the statue, symbolizing spiritual radiance and enlightenment. The Buddha is depicted with a gentle smile and eyes lowered in meditative introspection. Above, a complex, dark wooden ceiling structure lends an imposing architectural dimension, contributing to the sense of tranquility and sanctity in this space. Foreground floral offerings add vibrant color, suggesting ongoing veneration and cultural significance. The photo conveys a combination of artistry, spirituality, and the calm ambiance of a sacred place.",

| tag_score | false | 0.9 | Minimum tag score for the results. Valid values are floats between 0 and 1. |
| capture_interval | false | 1 | By default videos process every frame. This allows you to set the capture interval. Valid values are integers greater than 0. |
| max_frames | false | 3 | By default videos process every frame. This allows you to set the max number of frames to process. To remove the limit, set this value to 0. |
You can also POST to the /api/fetch endpoint with JSON. Here is a sample payload:
{
"feature": ["nsfw", "tags", "descriptions"],
"role": "general",
"url": [
"https://example.com/info.png",
"https://example.com/second.png"
]
}
When dealing with files, we recommend using POST requests.
