Add Image Generation to Your AI Agent in 5 Minutes

Your AI agent can write emails, summarize docs, and answer questions. But ask it to create a social media image? 🦗

That's what I built RendrKit for - a Design API that lets any AI agent generate professional images with one API call.

The Problem

AI agents are great at text. Terrible at visuals. If your agent needs to:

  • Create an Instagram post for a client
  • Generate an OG image for a blog
  • Make a banner for a product launch

...you're stuck calling Canva manually. That defeats the purpose of automation.

The Solution: One API Call


bash
curl -X POST https://api.rendrkit.dev/api/v1/generate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "Instagram post about morning coffee routine, warm aesthetic",
    "size": "1080x1080"
  }'

Response: a CDN URL with your image. Done.

Two Modes

Prompt mode - describe what you want in plain English. GPT picks the best template and fills it.

Direct render mode - you pick the template and slots yourself. $0.001 per image. Full control.

{
  "templateId": "bold-title-overlay",
  "size": "1200x628",
  "slots": {
    "title": "Ship Fast, Break Nothing",
    "subtitle": "A developer's guide to velocity",
    "accent_color": "#6C5CE7"
  }
}

MCP Server (for Claude, Cursor, etc.)

npx @rendrkit/mcp@latest

Add to your Claude Desktop config:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rendrkit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@rendrkit/mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "RENDRKIT_API_KEY": "your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Now Claude can generate images directly in conversation.
