CometAPI alternative
CometAPI alternative for teams that ship images and video
Pixel Dojo is one API key for the image and video models product teams use, with docs generated from each model's own spec, every price in the catalog, a hosted MCP server and a web studio to try a prompt before you code it.
CometAPI resells access to hundreds of AI models, text, image and video, behind one OpenAI compatible key. If your app makes pictures and clips, we wanted to show the media side of that job, so we ran one product brief through four image models on our public API.
1 credit ($0.06) per image at 1K. Included in every plan, from $10/month.

We sent the same e-commerce prompt to four models through POST /api/v1/models/{apiId}/run, changing only the model id. Each tile shows its settings and credits.

- All four kept the brief: matte sage green, vinyl records, beige backdrop and no logos on the cups.
- FLUX 3 Image cost 1 credit and gave the cleanest catalog style shot.
- Nano Banana 2.1 was the only one to lay the headphones down, which reads more like a lifestyle photo.
- Seedream 5 added the most mood with a window shadow, at 2.5 credits.
