Ideogram 4 API — Ideogram V4, V3, Character & Reframe

The Ideogram 4 API (Ideogram v4 API) is live on Muapi: call ideogram-v4 for text-to-image with sharp, legible typography at $0.06 per image, in 1K or 2K and five aspect ratios. The same hub also lists Ideogram V3, Ideogram Character, and V3 Reframe — four live image endpoints behind one asynchronous submit-and-poll workflow.

What is the Ideogram 4 API?

The Ideogram 4 API on Muapi (endpoint ideogram-v4, also searched as the Ideogram v4 API) is Ideogram 4.0's text-to-image model: it targets sharp, legible typography, clean graphic design, and photorealistic scenes. Send a prompt of up to 4,000 characters, choose 1K or 2K resolution and one of five aspect ratios (1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16), and receive a hosted image URL asynchronously via polling or webhook.

Ideogram 4 pricing on Muapi is $0.06 per image, the same at 1K and 2K. Ideogram v4 is text-to-image only; for reference-driven characters or aspect-ratio outpainting use the other endpoints in this hub. Ideogram V3 is $0.02 per image, and Ideogram Character and V3 Reframe are $0.15 per image; when a V3-family request returns several images, each is charged separately.

The V3-family endpoints (ideogram-v3-t2i, ideogram-character, ideogram-v3-reframe) expose Turbo, Balanced, and Quality render speeds, support the same five aspect ratios, and accept num_images from 1 to 4. Character uses Auto, Realistic, or Fiction styles; V3 and Reframe use Auto, General, Realistic, or Design.

Ideogram API capabilities

Ideogram 4 typography and design

Use the Ideogram 4 API (ideogram-v4) for posters, logos, packaging, and text-heavy visuals; put the text you want rendered in quotes or spell it out exactly in the prompt.

Typography-focused generation

Create posters, branded artwork, concept art, and photorealistic scenes from text with Ideogram V3's strong text-rendering workflow.

Character reference

Give Ideogram Character one clear reference image and a prompt to place the same subject into new outfits, poses, styles, and settings.

Prompt-free reframing

Use Ideogram V3 Reframe with an image_url and target aspect_ratio to outpaint a canvas without writing a new generation prompt.

Flexible controls and batching

Select render speed, style, and one of five aspect ratios, then request 1–4 images with per-image billing.

Ideogram workflows

Brand and editorial design

Use Ideogram V3 for legible poster copy, campaign concepts, packaging mockups, and typography-led social assets.

Consistent characters

Use Ideogram Character to carry a recognizable person or illustrated character through a comic, storyboard, children's book, or game concept.

Multi-format production

Use V3 Reframe to adapt an image for landscape, portrait, square, or print-oriented placements while extending the surrounding canvas.

Quick start — Ideogram 4 API code examples

Submit an Ideogram 4 API (ideogram-v4) text-to-image task with your Muapi key, receive a request ID, and poll the shared predictions endpoint for the generated image URL.

1. Submit an Ideogram 4 API job

curl -X POST https://api.muapi.ai/api/v1/ideogram-v4 \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt":"A premium editorial poster on a deep forest-green background with the word BOTANICA in large cream serif lettering, one orange lily in a cobalt-blue vase","resolution":"1K","aspect_ratio":"3:4"}'

# Response: {"request_id":"REQUEST_ID"}

The ideogram-v4 endpoint takes prompt, resolution (1K or 2K), and aspect_ratio. Price is $0.06 per image at either resolution.

2. Submit an Ideogram V3 job

curl -X POST https://api.muapi.ai/api/v1/ideogram-v3-t2i \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"prompt":"A hand-painted travel poster with the words 'MUAPI AI' in bold cream lettering, a red tram crossing a rainy European street","render_speed":"Balanced","style":"Design","aspect_ratio":"4:3","num_images":1}'

# Response: {"request_id":"REQUEST_ID"}

The example uses the Ideogram V3 text-to-image endpoint with a design style and one output. Switch to ideogram-character or ideogram-v3-reframe and provide the required image_url for those workflows.

3. Poll the result

curl https://api.muapi.ai/api/v1/predictions/REQUEST_ID/result \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Poll until the task completes, then read the generated image URL or URLs from the result response.

Ideogram API FAQ

What is the Ideogram 4 API?

The Ideogram 4 API (endpoint ideogram-v4) is Ideogram 4.0's text-to-image model on Muapi, built for sharp, legible typography, clean graphic design, and photorealistic scenes. You submit a prompt, resolution, and aspect ratio and poll for the hosted image.

What inputs does the Ideogram v4 API accept?

ideogram-v4 requires prompt (up to 4,000 characters) and accepts resolution (1K or 2K) and aspect_ratio (1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, or 9:16). It is text-to-image only and does not take reference images.

Which Ideogram endpoints are available on Muapi?

Muapi lists four live endpoints: ideogram-v4 (Ideogram 4 API) and ideogram-v3-t2i for text-to-image generation, ideogram-character for reference-driven character generation, and ideogram-v3-reframe for image outpainting and reframing.

What inputs does each Ideogram endpoint require?
