Transforming ideas into images: Introducing text-to-image generation on Nebius AI Studio
From concept art to product visuals, text-to-image AI is revolutionizing creative workflows, reducing hours of design work to mere minutes. Today, we’re excited to launch Nebius AI Studio’s text-to-image service, delivering premium, production-ready image generation at a fraction of typical costs.
Generate stunning visuals at scale without breaking the bank. Our text-to-image service unlocks powerful new possibilities across industries: marketing teams can generate and test ad variations in minutes, game studios are able to rapidly prototype concept art, and design agencies gain the ability to accelerate their ideation process. For e-commerce brands, producing product lifestyle imagery at scale becomes seamless, while app developers can streamline UI/UX workflows with real-time visual generation.
With consistent style control and flexible pricing, you can experiment freely and scale confidently — whether you’re crafting custom social media content or generating assets for your next big launch. The service offers:
High-resolution output up to 2000×2000: No more scrimping on quality.
Speed at 1.8 seconds per image: Perfect for real-time feedback loops.
Simple, predictable costs from 0.0013 USD per image: No hidden fees.
Enterprise-grade reliability: Built to scale with your projects.
Unlimited rate limits on request: Start with default caps and scale to virtually infinite throughput.
This combination sets a new standard for professional image generation, empowering you to create without limits.
Perfect for rapid prototyping and real-time applications
0.0013 USD per image (1.30 USD per 1K images)
Ideal for: UI/UX workflows, live previews, rapid iterations
Figure 1. Example prompt: Nature documentary capture with focal length 180, close-up: [Gracious tiger crawls through the grass detecting his pray], [individual fur hairs slightly more under the breeze]. Focus stacking enabled, natural colors.
Ideal for: high-end visuals, detailed artwork, professional creative work
Figure 3. Example prompt: A sleek aluminum can with an iridescent teal-to-rose gradient on a rustic wooden table in a sunlit living room. Delicate condensation droplets catch the light. Minimal geometric patterns, photorealistic rendering, soft bokeh, natural lighting.
Implementing our text-to-image service is straightforward. Here’s a quick example using cURL:
curl -X 'POST' \
'https://api.studio.nebius.ai/v1/images/generations' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $NEBIUS_API_KEY" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "black-forest-labs/flux-schnell",
"prompt": "A serene landscape at sunset, with rolling hills and a lone tree silhouette",
"response_format": "url"
}'
And here’s the one for Python:
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://api.studio.nebius.ai/v1/",
api_key="your_api_key"
)
response = client.images.generate(
model="stability-ai/sdxl",
prompt="A serene mountain landscape at sunrise, with mist in the valley",
size="1024x1024",
response_format="b64_json",
extra_body={
"response_extension": "webp", # Optimize for web delivery"num_inference_steps": 40, # Higher quality output"seed": 123456, # Reproducible results"negative_prompt": "dark, cloudy, storm, hazy"
}
)
Key parameters to customize your generations include:
size: Support for resolutions up to 2048×2048 pixels
num_inference_steps: Adjust the generation quality
seed: Enable consistent, reproducible results
negative_prompt: Refine outputs by specifying what to exclude
response_format: Get results as URLs or base64-encoded images
All models available in Studio support these parameters, allowing you to optimize for your specific needs — whether it’s ultra-fast generation with Flux Schnell or premium quality with SDXL.

The key to exceptional AI-generated images is in how you describe them. Here are three proven techniques to improve your results:
Be specific with composition. Instead of “A cat,” try “A Persian cat sitting in a sunlit window, soft morning light, professional photography.”
Use negative prompts to refine results:
{
"prompt": "Professional headshot of a business person",
"negative_prompt": "blurry, distorted features, unrealistic lighting"
}
Save seeds for consistency. Keep your seed value when you find the perfect style and use it across multiple generations for consistent results. This approach is perfect for creating sets of related images.
We’re actively developing image-to-image transformations, advanced editing capabilities, model fine-tuning options, enhanced control features and an ability of running LoRA models. Plus, we’re continuously optimizing the models for even better quality and performance.
