# Z-Image Turbo Seamless Tiling API

> Fast text-to-image model producing tileable output, with horizontal, vertical or both-way tiling and inpainting

Generates images that repeat across edges, controlled by `tiling_mode` (both, horizontal or vertical), `tile_size` and `tile_stride`. Runs up to 8 inference steps and returns 1 to 4 images in png, jpeg or webp. Supplying `image_url` enables image-to-image, and adding `mask_image_url` enables inpainting. `strength` sets how much the input changes.

- Model id: `z-image/turbo/tiling`
- Made by: Alibaba
- Category: Text to Image
- Output: image
- Price per megapixel of your output image: $0.02 / megapixel of output image (cheapest run $0.02 (20 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/z-image/turbo/tiling`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/z-image/turbo/tiling`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/developers/models/z-image/turbo/tiling

## Pricing

Price: **$0.02 / megapixel of output image**. Price per megapixel of your output image: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.02 = 20 API credits (1 MP output image × $0.02).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/z-image/turbo/tiling` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Prompt that guides image generation. |
| `image_size` |  | object {width, height} \| enum (string) | no | `square_hd` | `square_hd`, `square`, `portrait_4_3`, `portrait_16_9`, `landscape_4_3`, `landscape_16_9`, `auto` | Generated image dimensions, with 'auto' choosing 1024x1024 unless an input image is supplied, in which case its dimensions are used. |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `8` | 1 – 8 | Count of inference steps to run. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed for reproducible images: an identical prompt and seed produce an identical image when the model version is unchanged. |
| `num_images` | `num_outputs` | integer | no | `1` | 1 – 4 | Image count requested for generation. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Safety checking, which returns black images in place of any images flagged unsafe. A value of true enables checking; false disables it only for authorized accounts, while requests without authorization are checked regardless. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `png` | `jpeg`, `png`, `webp` | File format for the resulting image. |
| `acceleration` |  | enum (string) | no | `regular` | `none`, `regular`, `high` | Acceleration level applied to processing. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controls whether prompt expansion is enabled. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Image URL used for either image-to-image generation or inpainting. Supplying mask_image_url selects inpainting; omitting it selects image-to-image generation. |
| `mask_image_url` |  | string (image URL) \| null | no |  |  | Inpainting mask URL supplied alongside the required image_url. The mask retains black areas unchanged and regenerates white areas. |
| `strength` |  | number | no | `0.6` | ≤ 1, > 0 | Transformation strength applied only to an image supplied through image_url; otherwise unused. |
| `tile_size` |  | integer | no | `128` | 32 – 256 | Latent-space tile size, where 64 corresponds to 512px, 128 to 1024px, and 256 to 2048px. Dimensions of the generated image automatically cap the size along tiled axes; patchification requires an even value, divisible by 2. |
| `tile_stride` |  | integer | no | `64` | 16 – 128 | Latent-space tile stride, with pixel equivalents of 32 = 256px, 64 = 512px, and 128 = 1024px. Only multiples of 2 are valid; any value above half of the effective tile size is automatically reduced to that limit. |
| `tiling_mode` |  | enum (string) | no | `both` | `both`, `horizontal`, `vertical` | Direction of tiling: 'both' covers all directions, 'horizontal' covers only left to right, and 'vertical' covers only top to bottom. |

File parameters (`image`, `mask_image_url`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json

  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/z-image/turbo/tiling?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/z-image/turbo/tiling?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/z-image/turbo/tiling", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "z-image/turbo/tiling",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
