HiAPI

HiAPI is a developer-first AI API platform that simplifies access to leading generative AI models for image, video, and audio creation. Instead of managing multiple API keys, billing accounts, and integration patterns across different model providers, developers get one unified gateway. With a single API key and OpenAI-compatible request format, you can call models like Seedream 5.0 Pro for text-to-image and image-to-image generation, GPT Image 2 for sharp text rendering, Seedance 2.0 for cinematic video with native audio, or MiniMax Music 2.6 for turning prompts into complete songs. The platform is built for production workloads with availability-first routing, task-based async workflows, and automatic callbacks. Every output returns as a persistent artifact link, eliminating the need to build or maintain your own storage infrastructure. HiAPI is designed for both human developers and AI agents. It supports MCP tools, reusable Skills, and llms.txt prompts so agents like Claude, Cursor, and Codex can discover, call, and compose HiAPI workflows without manual integration. Pricing is transparent and pay-as-you-go, with each model listing its cost upfront. New users get up to $1 in free credits to start building immediately. Whether you are building a content generation pipeline, an AI-powered creative tool, or an agentic workflow, HiAPI reduces integration overhead and accelerates time to ship.

Unified API for All Models

One endpoint and one schema handle every image, video, and audio model on the platform. You pass the base model name and model-specific input parameters through the same POST /v1/tasks endpoint. This eliminates the need to learn different API formats for each provider. Whether you call Seedream 5.0 Pro or GPT Image 2, the request structure remains consistent. The platform validates parameters per request and supports optional routing for beta or extended model versions.

Persistent Artifact Storage

Every generation output comes back as a durable, low-cost link. When you set storage to persistent in your task request, the platform stores the generated image, video, or audio file and returns a URL that remains accessible. This removes the need to build, manage, or pay for separate storage infrastructure. Artifacts are available immediately after task completion and can be retrieved, shared, or embedded without additional API calls.

Asynchronous Task Lifecycle

Submit a generation job, check its status, receive a callback on completion, and retrieve stored artifacts through a simple lifecycle. The platform returns a task ID immediately upon submission. You can poll for status or set a callback URL to get notified when the task finishes. Idempotency keys prevent duplicate task creation on retries. This design supports both synchronous-looking workflows and fully async, event-driven architectures.

AI Agent Ready Integration

HiAPI is built for the agentic era. It supports Remote MCP tools that agents can discover and call directly, reusable Skills that package common workflows into step-by-step instructions, and an llms.txt file that gives any LLM or agent a complete understanding of the platform. Agents like Claude, Cursor, and Codex can wire up to HiAPI in minutes, selecting the integration path that fits their capabilities.

AI-Powered Content Creation Pipeline

Build a pipeline that generates images, videos, and audio from a single prompt or structured input. A marketing team can submit a product description, get a GPT Image 2 product shot with sharp text overlay, a Seedance 2.0 promotional video, and a MiniMax Music 2.6 background track, all through the same API. Persistent artifact links make it easy to feed outputs directly into a CMS, social media scheduler, or ad platform.

Agentic Workflows for Creative Tools

Integrate HiAPI into AI agents that compose and execute multi-step creative tasks. An agent can generate an image with Seedream 5.0 Pro, edit it using image-to-image capabilities, then create a video variation with Seedance 2.0. The agent uses llms.txt to understand available models, picks Skills or Remote MCP as the integration method, and chains calls automatically without human intervention.

Real-Time Content Moderation and Generation

Combine HiAPI with moderation APIs to generate safe, on-brand content at scale. Submit a generation task with a callback URL that triggers a moderation check on the artifact. If approved, the persistent link is published automatically. If rejected, the system retries with adjusted prompts. This pattern works for social media platforms, ad networks, and user-generated content tools that need both speed and safety.

Prototyping and Rapid Iteration for AI Products

Use HiAPI to quickly prototype generative AI features without committing to a single model provider. Swap between FLUX 1.1 Pro and Nano Banana 2 for image generation by changing only the model name in your request. Test different video models, compare quality and cost, and decide which to use in production. The unified billing and pay-as-you-go pricing mean you only pay for what you test.

HiAPI uses transparent pay-as-you-go pricing. Each model lists its price per generation upfront on the model details page. You can review costs for Seedream 5.0 Pro, GPT Image 2, Seedance 2.0, MiniMax Music 2.6, and all other models before integrating. New users receive up to $1 in free credits to test the platform. There are no monthly commitments, subscription tiers, or hidden fees. Estimate your cost clearly before a production launch by reviewing each model's price on the models page.

How do I get started with HiAPI?

Sign up on the HiAPI website to get a free API key and up to $1 in free credits. Use the API docs to make your first request by calling POST /v1/tasks with your model name, input parameters, and optional storage or callback settings. The platform supports curl, JavaScript, and Python examples to help you integrate quickly.

What models are available on HiAPI?

HiAPI offers curated models for image, video, and audio generation. Current image models include GPT Image 2, Nano Banana 2, FLUX 1.1 Pro, and Seedream 5.0 Pro. Video models include Seedance 2.0. Audio models include MiniMax Music 2.6. The platform continues to add new models, and you can explore the full list on the models page.

How does persistent storage work?

Set the storage parameter to persistent in your task request. When the generation completes, the platform stores the output artifact and returns a durable URL. You can use this link directly in your application without building your own storage system. The platform handles hosting, availability, and bandwidth for artifact delivery.

Can AI agents use HiAPI?

Yes. HiAPI is designed for AI agents. It provides a Remote MCP server that agents can discover and call, reusable Skills that package common workflows, and an llms.txt file that gives any LLM the full platform documentation. Agents like Claude, Cursor, and Codex can wire up to HiAPI by pasting the llms.txt prompt and following the setup steps.

What is the pricing model?

HiAPI uses transparent, pay-as-you-go pricing. Each model lists its price per generation upfront on the model details page. You can review costs before integrating and estimate expenses clearly before a production launch. New users receive up to $1 in free credits. There are no monthly commitments or hidden fees.
