# BiRefNet V2 Background Removal API

> Atvirojo kodo fono šalinimas ir iškirpimas iki 2304 px raiška, pasirenkant kaukės išvestį.

BiRefNet V2 atskiria objektą nuo fono naudodamas kelis modelio variantus (light, heavy, matting, portrait, dynamic) ir iki 2304x2304 veikimo raišką. Grąžina iškirptą objektą ir pasirinktinai kaukę PNG, WebP arba GIF formatu.

## Pricing

Price: **$0.002 / run**. Estimated from the typical cost of one run. The quote is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.002 = 2 API credits (1 request × 2 API credits).

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/birefnet/v2` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `model` |  | enum (string) | no | `General Use (Light)` | `General Use (Light)`, `General Use (Light 2K)`, `General Use (Heavy)`, `Matting`, `Portrait`, `General Use (Dynamic)` | Fono šalinimo modelio pasirinkimas: 'General Use (Light)' atitinka BiRefNet, originalų BiRefNet saugyklos modelį, rekomenduojamą daugeliui naudojimo atvejų. 'General Use (Light 2K)' atitinka BiRefNet_lite-2K ir naudoja originalų modelį, išmokytą naudojant 2K vaizdus. 'General Use (Heavy)' atitinka BiRefNet_lite ir užtikrina didesnį tikslumą, bet apdorojama lėčiau. 'Matting' atitinka BiRefNet-matting ir yra specialiai išmokytas vaizdų atskyrimui nuo fono. 'Portrait' atitinka BiRefNet-portrait ir yra specialiai išmokytas portretiniams vaizdams. 'General Use (Dynamic)' atitinka BiRefNet_dynamic ir palaiko kintamą raišką nuo 256x256 iki 2304x2304. |
| `operating_resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `1024x1024` | `1024x1024`, `2048x2048`, `2304x2304` | Darbinė raiška; '2304x2304' galima naudoti tik su 'General Use (Dynamic)' modeliu. Didelės raiškos įvesties vaizdams didesni nustatymai pagerina išvesties tikslumą. |
| `output_mask` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Nurodo, ar į išvestį įtraukiama fono šalinimo kaukė. |
| `refine_foreground` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Nurodo priekinio plano tobulinimą pagal apskaičiuotą kaukę. |
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL, nurodantis vaizdą, kurio fonas bus pašalintas. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `png` | `webp`, `png`, `gif` | Gauto vaizdo formatas. |
| `mask_only` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Tik kaukės išvesties jungiklis: `True` apeina priekinio plano tobulinimą ir palieka vaizdą nepakeistą, grąžindamas tik jo segmentavimo kaukę. Kai reikia tik kaukės, taip išvengiama papildomų skaičiavimų ir sumažinamas perduodamų duomenų kiekis. |

File parameters (`image`) 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
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_sneaker_ad.jpg"
}
```

}
```

## 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/birefnet/v2?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_sneaker_ad.jpg"
  }'

# 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/birefnet/v2?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_sneaker_ad.jpg"
  }),
});
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 = {
    "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_sneaker_ad.jpg",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/birefnet/v2", 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": "birefnet/v2",
      "input": {
        "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/gen_sneaker_ad.jpg"
      },
      "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.
