API questions before your first call
- At 1080p, each image costs $0.13 and 10 images come to $1.30 (R$4.35, 73 credits).
- Create an account, make a key and send the request to the quote, which charges nothing. The 15 free credits cover 2 images with 3.
- No. Buy a credit pack by card, or in reais with Pix from Brazil, and spend it on 3 and every other model with the same key.
- No. The Cut.Pro key calls 3 without a Ideogram account, with one balance for every model in the catalog.
- Yes. With a CPF or CNPJ and full address in your billing details, the nota fiscal is issued after each payment is confirmed.
