What is headless generation?

Headless generation is producing an asset — an image, a vector, a video — from an API or agent with no user interface or browser involved: prompt in, file out. It lets automated systems and agents create media server-side, at scale, as part of a pipeline.

In depth

Understanding headless generation

"Headless" means no front end. Instead of a person clicking in an app, a program sends a request and gets an asset back. The generation runs entirely on the server, so it can be scripted, batched, and wired into a build or an agent loop.

It is what makes generation usable as infrastructure: a CI job emits the missing OG images, an agent produces an icon set mid-task, a catalog pipeline renders a thousand product badges — none of it opening a browser.

For vector output, headless generation returns real, editable SVG code an agent can post-process — not a screenshot of a design tool.

The generation API

Six models, one endpoint — generate headless, per-image cost returned.

The design workspace where these ideas are real

Agents that generate, a canvas they can see and drive, and a brain that keeps every asset on-brand. Free to start.
