Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before your first API call.
Is there a free plan?
Yes — everything is free while pixpoo is in beta. No account, no credit card, no signup required to use any of the tools.
What image transforms are supported?
Resize, crop, compression, format conversion (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF), background removal, AI upscaling (2x/4x), and text or logo watermarking — all available through one endpoint.
Can I upload images in bulk?
Yes. The /v1/upload/bulk endpoint accepts up to 50 files per request, queues each one, and returns a batch id you can poll for progress and download links.
Do you support a source URL instead of uploading a file?
Yes — pass a "url" parameter instead of a file and pixpoo will fetch, transform, and return the result the same way.
How is usage measured?
Each successful transform (single or as part of a bulk batch) counts as one unit against a rate limit — everything is free during the beta.
Can I self-host pixpoo?
The backend and frontend are both provided as Docker images with a docker-compose file, so yes — you can run the full stack on your own infrastructure.
