PicFinder

PicFinder (PicFinder.ai) is an AI-powered image generation platform that turns text prompts into unlimited realistic, artistic, and abstract images in near real time. Beyond the consumer web app and Figma plugin, PicFinder exposes a developer API for programmatic image inference powered by the RunWare / DiffusionMaster inference platform. The API is delivered over a WebSocket connection and authenticated with an API key, and supports text-to-image and image-to-image generation, model and LoRA selection (including CivitAI models), ControlNet guidance, inpainting and outpainting, background removal, GAN upscaling, image-to-text interrogation, prompt enhancement, and similar-image retrieval. A first-party JavaScript / TypeScript SDK (picfinder-sdk) wraps the WebSocket protocol for both browser and Node.js environments. PicFinder was surfaced as an a16z portfolio company and profiled into the API Evangelist network.

PicFinder publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Image Generation, and Generative AI.

PicFinder’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, signup flow, support, authentication, and 11 more developer resources.
