# The open models for visual intelligence

We are Ideogram, a generative media platform for creating, editing, and integrating visual media. Our models focus on prompt fidelity, clear typography, and reliable editing for images that need to work beyond the prompt box.

## Three ways to create

### Ideogram Creative

Create, edit, and iterate in one visual workspace. We bring together Ideogram 4.0/4.5, Ideogram Studio, and purpose-built apps for the creative workflow.

- [Start creating](https://ideogram.ai/t/explore)
- [Explore apps](https://ideogram.ai/tools/)

### Ideogram API

Build production workflows on one endpoint. Add image generation and editing to a product with shared authentication, billing, and access to our frontier models.

- [Build with API](https://ideogram.ai/api-learn/)
- [Read the docs](https://developer.ideogram.ai/ideogram-api/api-overview)

### Ideogram Agents

Bring visual creation into agent workflows. Connect Ideogram to Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients so agents can generate, edit, and train without breaking context.

- [Connect MCP](https://ideogram.ai/features/mcp/)

## Introducing Ideogram 4.5

Ideogram 4.5 is our most capable model yet, with sharper prompt fidelity, readable type in every layout, and edits that stay true to the intended result from first generation through final revision.

- [Explore Ideogram 4.5](https://ideogram.ai/models/4.5/)

## One API, infinite possibilities

We provide image and video models through one endpoint. Authentication, billing, and integrations remain in place while you switch models by changing a single model string.

- One API handles image and video models.
- MCP brings generation into agent workflows.
- Per-request pricing appears on one bill.
- A string change swaps the model.

The homepage’s Python quickstart uses the `requests` library and posts to `https://api.ideogram.ai/v1/ideogram-v4/generate` with an API key and a `text_prompt`, then reads the generated image URL:

```python
import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.ideogram.ai/v1/ideogram-v4/generate",
    headers={"Api-Key": "<your-api-key>"},
    json={
        "text_prompt": "A poster for a summer design conference"
    },
)

image = response.json()["data"][0]
print(image["url"])
```

## Enterprise

We support creative teams and agencies producing visual work at scale. Enterprise offerings include enterprise-grade security, legal indemnification, unlimited seats, custom SSO, and dedicated support from day one.

Skechers VP of AI Innovation Colton Greenberg says: “With Ideogram, our creative teams can move faster from idea to visualization to refinement, so we iterate quicker, sample smarter, and cut rework and waste.” This statement is attributed to Skechers.
