Replace the description with your own, and you'll get a unique image based on your words!

Here's an example of a generated image:

Python code to download the generated image:

import requests

def download_image(prompt):
    url = f"https://pollinations.ai/p/{prompt}"
    response = requests.get(url)
    with open('generated_image.jpg', 'wb') as file:
        file.write(response.content)
    print('Image downloaded!')

download_image("conceptual_isometric_world_of_pollinations_ai_surreal_hyperrealistic_digital_garden")

To generate text, use this URL:

https://text.pollinations.ai/What%20is%20artificial%20intelligence?

To generate audio from text, use this URL:

https://text.pollinations.ai/Welcome%20to%20Pollinations?model=openai-audio&voice=nova

We offer React hooks for easy integration. Example usage:

import React from 'react';
import { usePollinationsImage, usePollinationsText } from '@pollinations/react';
import ReactMarkdown from 'react-markdown';

const AIGeneratedContent = () => {
  const imageUrl = usePollinationsImage("Beautiful landscape of Paris with Eiffel Tower", { width: 800, height: 600, seed: 42 });
  const markdown = usePollinationsText("Write a brief travel guide for Paris, including top attractions and local cuisine in markdown", { seed: 42 });

  return (
    <div>
      <h2>AI-Generated Travel Guide</h2>
      <img src={imageUrl} alt="AI Generated" />
      {markdown ? (
        <ReactMarkdown>{markdown}</ReactMarkdown>
      ) : (
        <p>Loading markdown content...</p>
      )}
    </div>
  );
};

export default AIGeneratedContent;
