Most image stacks are either low-level infra or enterprise tools that block autonomous agent workflows.
An agent-first image host
without the enterprise tax.
PixelVault gives agents and teams a clean contract: upload via API, get a CDN URL, and keep full control of domains and costs.
API-first everything
Registration, projects, API keys, uploads — your entire lifecycle is an API call. Full OpenAPI 3.1 spec, idempotent uploads, retry-safe by design.
Global CDN
Every image is served from a globally distributed CDN with enterprise-grade durability. Fast load times everywhere, automatic edge caching.
Agent-ready from day one
llms.txt, OpenAPI spec, .well-known/api-catalog. AI coding agents can discover, register, and start uploading without a human touching a browser.
$0 to start
200 MB storage, 500 uploads/month, 1 GB bandwidth. No credit card. No trial expiry. The entire stack runs on free tiers.
Zero egress fees
No bandwidth charges for serving images. Ever. Predictable pricing that doesn't punish growth.
On-the-fly transforms
Resize, crop, convert to WebP/AVIF, apply effects (blur, grayscale, rotate), and watermark — just add query params to any image URL, e.g. ?w=400&fit=cover&fmt=webp. Thumbnails, social cards, and edits in one request, no build pipeline. Every plan.
AI background removal
Turn any photo into a transparent cut-out with ?segment=foreground — subject isolated, background gone, no design tool. Add &background=white to composite it onto a solid fill. One URL, one request, on every plan.
EU data residency
Your images and metadata are stored at rest in the EU — Cloudflare R2 (EU) plus an EU Postgres database. GDPR-friendly by default. Cookieless analytics, no tracking cookies, no consent banner.
Paste & host, in your app
Add GitHub-style image handling to any textarea: users paste, drop, or pick an image and get a hosted CDN URL dropped in for them. One <script> tag (or a React/Vue hook) and a browser-safe publishable key — no upload backend to build. See the docs.
Let your agent try it
before you commit.
AI agents can discover, register, and start uploading without a human touching a browser. The full lifecycle is API-first.
