Generate images with Venice. Covers POST /image/generate (Venice-native), POST /images/generations (OpenAI-compatible), GET /image/styles (style presets), request fields (prompt, dimensions, cfg_scale, seed, variants, style_preset, style_references, aspect_ratio, resolution, safe_mode, watermark), and response formats.
Route a prompt to the right Venice text model based on privacy tier (anonymized / private / TEE / E2EE), modality (vision / audio / video input), capability (reasoning, code, function calling, web search, large context, structured output), and cost. Use when a local agent (Claude Code, Hermes, NanoClaw, Codex CLI, etc.) needs to decide whether to handle a prompt locally or escalate to Venice, and if escalating, which Venice text model to call. Sits one level above venice-models (model discovery) and before venice-chat (the call surface).
Manage Venice API keys. Covers GET/POST/PATCH/DELETE /api_keys, GET /api_keys/{id}, GET /api_keys/rate_limits, GET /api_keys/rate_limits/log, the two-step /api_keys/generate_web3_key wallet flow, INFERENCE vs ADMIN key types, and per-key consumption limits (USD / DIEM).
High-level map of the Venice.ai API - base URL, authentication modes, endpoint categories, response headers, pricing model, error shape, and versioning. Load this first when starting any Venice integration.
Async music / audio-track generation via Venice. Covers the /audio/quote + /audio/queue + /audio/retrieve + /audio/complete lifecycle, lyrics vs instrumental, voice selection, duration, language, speed, model capability probing, and webhook-free polling.
Generate speech from text via POST /audio/speech. Covers TTS models (Kokoro, Qwen 3, xAI, Inworld, Chatterbox, Orpheus, ElevenLabs Turbo, MiniMax, Gemini Flash), voices per family, output formats (mp3/opus/aac/flac/wav/pcm), streaming, prompt/emotion styling, temperature/top_p, and language hints.
Transcribe audio files to text via POST /audio/transcriptions. Covers supported models (Parakeet, Whisper, Wizper, Scribe, xAI STT), supported formats (wav/flac/m4a/aac/mp4/mp3/ogg/webm), response formats (json/text), timestamps, and language hints. OpenAI-compatible multipart.
Venice augmentation endpoints for agent pipelines. Covers POST /augment/text-parser (extract text from PDF/DOCX/XLSX/plain text, multipart, up to 25MB, JSON or plain text response), POST /augment/scrape (fetch a URL and return markdown; blocks X/Reddit), and POST /augment/search (Brave ZDR or anonymized Google; structured title/url/content/date results, up to 20 per query). Privacy (zero data retention), rate limits, and error shapes.
