ImageKit

ImageKit provides a complete platform for developers and marketers to optimize, manage, and deliver stunning images and video. It combines a real-time media API with an AI-powered Digital Asset Management (DAM) system, empowering your team to ship faster, iterate freely, and provide a flawless visual experience for your users everywhere.

Key Features

ImageKit streamlines your entire visual media workflow with a powerful, integrated toolset designed for performance and scale.

🔗 Unified API for Images & Video Stop juggling multiple tools. Use a single, consistent, URL-based API to transform, optimize, and deliver both images and videos. By connecting to your existing storage, you can simplify your tech stack and accelerate development cycles without complex code changes.

⚡ Real-Time Optimization & Transformation Deliver the perfect asset for every user, every time. ImageKit automatically analyzes each request to serve the lightest possible format (like AVIF or WebP) for the user's device. Plus, you can apply over 50 on-the-fly transformations—from smart cropping and resizing to watermarks and text overlays—directly within the URL.

🤖 AI-Powered Creative Tools Automate complex edits and unlock new creative possibilities. With ImageKit AI, you can instantly remove or change backgrounds, use Generative Fill to extend images to new aspect ratios, or upscale low-resolution content. These powerful features are accessible via simple URL parameters, turning tedious manual tasks into automated workflows.

🗂️ Intelligent Digital Asset Management (DAM) Organize, find, and collaborate on your media assets with unparalleled efficiency. The integrated DAM uses AI to automatically tag new uploads, making them instantly searchable. Your team can use natural language or even upload an image to find visually similar assets, all managed through a central library with granular permissions and workflows.

How ImageKit Solves Your Problems

Here are a few practical ways you can use ImageKit to drive results:

• For E-commerce Product Pages: You have one high-quality master product photo. With a single URL, you can automatically generate perfectly cropped thumbnails for your category pages, remove the background and add a realistic shadow for your product detail page, and create a lifestyle shot with a new AI-generated background for a marketing banner—all in real time, without ever touching an image editor.

• For High-Performance Websites: Your development team is tasked with improving Core Web Vitals. Instead of a complex migration project, they simply update the base URL for your images to point to ImageKit. Instantly, your site begins serving next-generation, optimally compressed images to every visitor, dramatically reducing load times and improving your performance scores with minimal engineering effort.

• For Marketing Campaign Agility: Your marketing team needs a hero banner for the homepage, but the only approved photo is a portrait. Using the Generative Fill transformation, they can extend the image to a landscape format in seconds. The AI intelligently paints in a realistic, context-aware background, giving them a perfect, ready-to-use asset without needing a designer or a reshoot.
