# Bria Guided Remove Background API

> Door een prompt gestuurde achtergrondverwijdering die objecten in de uitsnede toevoegt, verwijdert of isoleert

Begint met een standaarduitsnede van het hoofdonderwerp in `image_url` en past deze vervolgens aan met een optionele `prompt` in gewone taal, bijvoorbeeld door een extra object te behouden of slechts één object te isoleren. De oorspronkelijke pixels blijven behouden en er wordt een alfakanaal toegevoegd; het resultaat wordt geretourneerd als RGBA PNG. Met `autocrop` wordt het canvas aangepast aan de behouden inhoud.

- Model id: `bria/guided-remove-background`
- Made by: Bria AI
- Category: Background Removal
- Output: image
- Price: $0.03 / image (cheapest run $0.03 (30 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/bria/guided-remove-background`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/bria/guided-remove-background`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/nl/developers/models/bria/guided-remove-background

## Pricing

Price: **$0.03 / image**. Billed per generated image.

The full example input below costs $0.03 = 30 API credits (1 image × 30 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/bria/guided-remove-background` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | no | `https://labs-assets.bria.ai/api-examples/guided-remove-background/yoga_studio_input.jpg` |  | Bronafbeelding die wordt aangeleverd via een openbare URL, onbewerkte base64-gecodeerde afbeeldingsbytes of een base64-data-URI zoals data:image/png;base64,... . |
| `prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Optionele aanpassing in gewone taal van de standaarduitsnede: breid de selectie uit met 'the person with the mat and the plant', sluit objecten uit met 'the woman at her desk without the lamp' of beperk deze met 'only the chair'. Een lege waarde selecteert het voor de hand liggende onderwerp van de foto zonder aanpassing. Behouden pixels blijven ongewijzigd; alleen een nieuw alfakanaal wordt toegevoegd. |
| `autocrop` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Snijd het uitvoercanvas strak bij rond de behouden inhoud. |

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
{}
```

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/bria/guided-remove-background?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/bria/guided-remove-background?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/bria/guided-remove-background", 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": "bria/guided-remove-background",
      "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.

### Output fields (`output`)

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `image` | object {url, content_type, file_name, file_size, width, height} | RGBA PNG waarin de bronfoto behouden blijft met een nieuw alfakanaal dat het vermoedelijke hoofdonderwerp selecteert, verfijnd op basis van de prompt. |
