Glif

Glif is a creative AI platform from Spellcasters, Inc. — originally launched in 2023 as a no-code visual workflow builder for chaining text, image, audio, and video models into shareable "glifs", and re-launched in March 2026 as Glif 2.0, a single chat-based AI agent with access to 100+ native tools (Claude Sonnet 4.5, Claude Opus 4.1, GPT-4o, Nano Banana Pro, Flux 2 Turbo, Seedream V4, Kling 2.5 Turbo Pro, VEO 3.1, Hailuo 2.3, ElevenLabs, MiniMax v2, FFmpeg, web search and more). Glif raised a $17.5M seed round led by a16z and USV in April 2026. The platform is used by creators, e-commerce sellers, performance marketers, and agencies to produce short-form video, product shoots, ad campaigns, character/comic art, memes, logos, and SVG vector graphics. Glif's public REST and Simple APIs were deprecated on 2026-05-20 in favor of the chat agent surface; the open Glif MCP server, ComfyUI custom nodes, Chrome extension, and Python client remain the canonical programmatic entry points to the platform. Profiled in the API Evangelist network as a reference case for the "no-code AI workflow builder → AI agent" platform pivot, alongside peers such as Anthropic, OpenAI, and other foundation-model orchestration providers.

Glif publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include AI, Artificial Intelligence, No-Code, Workflows, and Creative AI.

Glif’s developer surface includes developer portal, documentation, changelog, pricing, support, GitHub presence, YouTube channel, and 18 more developer resources.

    includes the run's final `output` (often an image URL or text) plus an `outputFull` block describing the output type.
    Legacy responses always return HTTP 200 even on error, with the error surfaced in an `error` field. Per Glif's FAQ the
    API was deprecated on 2026-05-20 as part of the Glif 2.0 chat-agent rebuild; the documentation repository remains public
    for reference and existing integrations.

    by `id`, `username`, `userId`, `glifId`, `featured`, pagination with `page` and `limit` (default 20, max 100), and inclusion
    of full glif-graph JSON via `?includes=spells.data`. A private POST `/glifs` endpoint creates draft glifs by supplying
    a graph of node blocks (TextInputBlock, GPTBlock, ComfyUI blocks, etc.). Deprecated 2026-05-20 alongside the Simple API
    as Glif retired the workflow-builder surface in favor of the chat-based agent.
