Image Intelligence API
Analyze any image in one call — blur, exposure, saturation, dominant colors, a quality score, and on-device NSFW moderation with category tags.
Get it on RapidAPI ↗Image Intelligence turns any image URL or base64 payload into actionable signals in a single call. It combines fast, pure-compute technical analysis — blur/sharpness, exposure and clipping, brightness, saturation, contrast, dominant colors, and an overall quality score — with on-device NSFW content moderation.
Moderation runs on a model bundled into our own server, so your images are never sent to a third-party vision service and there is no per-image model fee. Use it to filter user uploads, QA product photos, curate datasets, or gate not-safe-for-work content. Moderation is a best-effort signal, not a compliance tool.

Frequently asked questions
Does my image get sent to a third party?
No. Both the quality analysis and the NSFW model run on our own server. Images are processed transiently and are not stored.
How accurate is the NSFW scan?
It uses a MobileNetV2 classifier returning five categories (Neutral, Drawing, Sexy, Hentai, Porn) plus a combined score. It is a strong best-effort signal — tune the threshold to your needs and keep a human in the loop for high-stakes decisions. It is not a compliance or CSAM tool.
How do I send an image?
Pass either a public { "url" } (fetched server-side through an SSRF-hardened client) or a base64 { "base64" } payload (a data-URI prefix is allowed).
Is there a per-image fee?
No. Moderation runs on a bundled model, so it is covered by your flat monthly plan like every other endpoint.
