Tanod Images

imagepeek: Resize an image. For several sizes in one call use image_thumbnail; for a box or ratio use image_crop. Returns the image resized to `width` and/or `height` (or by `scale`) with `fit` inside (default), contain (letterboxed on `background`), cover (centre crop) or fill (stretched), Lanczos by default; never upscaled unless `upscale` is true (then `upscale_prevented` says so). Reads PNG, J

imagepeek: Convert an image to PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO or AVIF. To shrink the file use image_compress. Returns the image converted `to` png, jpeg, webp, gif, tiff, bmp, ico (16-256 px icon sizes) or avif, with `quality`, progressive JPEG, optimized PNG or lossless WebP; transparency is flattened onto `background` (default white) for jpeg and bmp. Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP,

imagepeek: Compress an image, optionally to a byte budget. To change the format only use image_convert. Returns a smaller JPEG, WebP, AVIF or PNG with metadata stripped: at `quality`, or with `max_bytes` the highest quality that fits (`target_met` false when none does); PNG can be quantised to `colors`. It never returns a larger file (the original comes back with `returned_original: true`). Reads

imagepeek: Crop an image to a box or an aspect ratio. To scale instead use image_resize. Returns the image cropped to a box (`left`, `top`, `width`, `height`; out of bounds is a 422 crop_out_of_bounds) or to an `aspect` ratio such as 16:9 placed by `gravity` (center or a side or corner); the reply carries the applied `box`. Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO and AVIF; other formats and ima

imagepeek: Rotate or flip an image. To change the format use image_convert. Returns the image rotated clockwise by `angle` (multiples of 90 are lossless transposes; other angles are bicubic, expanded by default, corners filled with `background`) and/or flipped (horizontal, vertical, both). Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO and AVIF; other formats and images over 40 megapixels are refused

imagepeek: Make 1-8 thumbnails of an image in one call. For one exact resize use image_resize. Returns 1-8 thumbnails in one call, each `sizes` entry {width, height} (at most 4096), by `fit` cover (smart centre crop with `gravity`, default) or contain; not upscaled unless `upscale`. The 15 MB output cap covers all of them together. The images come back in `images`. Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF

imagepeek: Read an image's EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC and ICC metadata. To remove the metadata use image_strip_metadata. Returns an image's header and metadata without decoding its pixels: format, dimensions, mode, frames, dpi, ICC profile, EXIF (camera, lens, dates, exposure, ISO, orientation), GPS (latitude and longitude in decimal degrees, altitude, date), XMP, IPTC, comments and PNG text keys; every

imagepeek: Strip an image's EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC and comment metadata. To read the metadata use image_metadata. Returns the image without EXIF (GPS included), XMP, IPTC, comments and text chunks: JPEG, PNG, WebP and GIF are stripped losslessly at the byte level (pixel data unchanged), TIFF, BMP, ICO and AVIF re-encoded; an EXIF rotation is baked into the pixels first unless `auto_orient` is false.

imagepeek: Add a text watermark to an image. For PDFs use pdf_watermark. Returns the image with a text watermark (1-200 printable characters, DejaVu Sans Mono) at one of 9 positions, or `tile`d in a staggered grid, with `opacity`, `font_size` (default 5% of the short side), `color`, `angle` and `margin`; text larger than the image is shrunk to fit. Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO and AV

imagepeek: Extract the dominant colours of an image. For a placeholder string use image_blurhash. Returns an image's palette of `k` colours (hex, rgb, share), the dominant one and the average colour with its luminance, from a 200 px sample (median cut refined by k-means; transparent pixels ignored). Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO and AVIF; other formats and images over 40 megapixels ar

imagepeek: Compute perceptual hashes of an image, optionally compared. To group duplicates among up to 100 images use image_dedupe. Returns perceptual hashes of an image (aHash, dHash, pHash, wHash; 64 or 256 bits, imagehash-compatible) and, with a second image (`compare_url` or `compare_base64`), the Hamming distance and similarity per algorithm and `likely_same` (pHash distance at most bits / 6)

imagepeek: Find duplicate images in a batch: group near-duplicates and pick the biggest. For a pair use image_hash. Returns groups of duplicate and near-duplicate images among up to 100 URLs (perceptual hash and Hamming distance), the highest-resolution image of each group as the suggested keeper, and per image its hash, size and any fetch error. Every member is within `threshold` bits (default 6

imagepeek: Generate a favicon set from an image. For plain sizes use image_thumbnail. Returns a favicon set from one image: favicon.ico (16, 32, 48 px), favicon-32x32.png, apple-touch-icon.png (180 px, flattened on `apple_background`, white by default), icon-192.png and icon-512.png, plus the HTML <link> snippet and the web-manifest icons; a source under 512 px is upscaled, with a note. The images

imagepeek: Generate a BlurHash placeholder string for an image. For the palette use image_colors. Returns the BlurHash string of an image (the published woltapp algorithm, identical to the reference package), with `x_components` and `y_components` 1-9 (default 4 x 3), for blurred placeholders while the real image loads. Reads PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO and AVIF; other formats and images

imagepeek: Read every QR code and barcode in an image. To make a QR code use make_qr_code; for other text use ocr_image. Returns every code found: `type` (QR, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code128, Code39), decoded `text`, `kind` (url, wifi, vcard, payment_emv, ...), corner `points`, `bbox`; a QR holding an EMVCo payment payload (PIX, QR Ph, SGQR, PromptPay; starts 000201) also gets a parsed `emv`

sitepeek: OCR the text in a public image. For a scanned PDF use pdf_ocr; for QR codes and barcodes use read_qr_barcode. Returns width, height, format, text (lines and paragraphs kept), words and confidence_mean (0-100, mean word confidence). Non-images, oversize images and private addresses are a 422 (not charged). Typically 1-5 s. Price: USD 0.0025. Free: 5 static renders per IP per UTC day. The

utilpeek: make a QR code image. For 1-D barcodes use make_barcode; to read a code use read_qr_barcode. Returns `svg` (text) or `data_base64` (PNG), or with `output` "url" a 24 h download link, plus `version`, `modules`, `width_px`, `height_px` and `bytes`. Data too long for a QR code at the chosen level is a 422 (not charged). Encoded locally, nothing is fetched; typically under 0.1 s. Price: USD

utilpeek: make a 1-D barcode image. For QR codes use make_qr_code. Returns `svg` (text, with width_mm/height_mm) or `data_base64` (PNG, with width_px/height_px; `output` "url": a 24 h link), plus `encoded` and `bytes`. A supplied check digit (ean13, ean8, upca, isbn13) must be right: a wrong one is a 422 invalid_checksum (not charged) rather than silently encoding a different number. Encoded local

utilpeek: Convert a color between hex, RGB, HSL and OKLCH and check WCAG contrast. For contrast alone use check_wcag_contrast. Returns a CSS color (hex, rgb(), hsl() or a CSS name) as hex, rgb, hsl, hsv, naive cmyk, OKLCH and WCAG relative luminance; with a `background`, the WCAG 2.x contrast ratio and AA / AAA pass or fail for normal and large text and UI components (unrounded: #777 on white is 4
