Image generation, editing and remove background

Generate, edit, create product images with AI. Remove or replace backgrounds, lifestyle shots, transparent PNGs, visual assets, batch generation, illustrations. Controllable image editing with Bria.ai commercially-safe models — fine-grained control over what gets generated, edited, or removed. Edit by text instruction, mask specific regions, add/replace/remove individual objects, control lighting, season, and style. Use for e-commerce product photography, background removal, image upscaling, style transfer, hero images, icons, banners, and pipeline workflows. Triggers on AI image generation, controllable editing, background removal, or visual asset creation.

Bria — Generate, Edit & Remove Background from Images with AI

Generate, edit, and create visual assets using Bria's commercially-safe AI models (FIBO, RMBG-2.0, GenFill, and more). Remove or replace backgrounds, create product lifestyle shots, generate transparent PNGs, batch generate images, and build pipeline workflows. Unlike black-box generators, Bria gives you fine-grained control: edit by text instruction, mask specific regions, add/replace/remove individual objects, change lighting or season independently.

Setup — API Key Check

Before making any Bria API call, check for the API key and help the user set it up if missing:

Step 1: Check if the key exists

bash

echo $BRIA_API_KEY

If the output is not empty, skip to the next section.

Step 2: If the key is missing, guide the user

Tell the user exactly this:

To use image generation, you need a free Bria API key.

Go to https://platform.bria.ai/console/account/api-keys

Sign up or log in

Click Create API Key

Wait for the user to provide their API key. Do not proceed until they give you the key.

Do not proceed with any image generation or editing until the API key is confirmed set.

Quick Reference

Generate an Image (FIBO)

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/generate" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "your description",
    "aspect_ratio": "16:9",
    "resolution": "1MP",
    "sync": true
  }'

Aspect ratios: 1:1 (square), 16:9 (hero/banner), 4:3 (presentation), 9:16 (mobile/story), 3:4 (portrait)

Resolution: 1MP (default) or 4MP (improved details for photorealism, adds ~30s latency)

Sync mode: Pass "sync": true in the request body for single image generation to get the result directly in the response. For batch/multiple image generation, omit sync (or set false) and use polling instead.

Advanced: For precise, deterministic control over generation, use VGL structured prompts instead of natural language. VGL defines every visual attribute (objects, lighting, composition) as explicit JSON.

Remove Background (RMBG-2.0)

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/edit/remove_background" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{"image": "https://..."}'

Returns PNG with transparency.

Edit Image (FIBO-Edit) - No Mask Required

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/edit" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "images": ["https://..."],
    "instruction": "change the mug to red"
  }'

Edit Image Region with Mask (GenFill)

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/edit/gen_fill" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "image": "https://...",
    "mask": "https://...",
    "prompt": "what to generate in masked area"
  }'

Expand Image (Outpainting)

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/edit/expand" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "image": "base64-or-url",
    "aspect_ratio": "16:9",
    "prompt": "coffee shop background, wooden table"
  }'

Upscale Image

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/image/edit/increase_resolution" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{"image": "https://...", "scale": 2}'

Create Product Lifestyle Shot

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v1/product/lifestyle_shot_by_text" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "image": "https://product-with-transparent-bg.png",
    "prompt": "modern kitchen countertop, natural morning light"
  }'

Integrate Products into Scene

Place one or more products at exact coordinates in a scene. Products are automatically cut out and matched to the scene's lighting and perspective.

bash

curl -X POST "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/image/edit/product/integrate" \
  -H "api_token: $BRIA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "User-Agent: BriaSkills/1.2.5" \
  -d '{
    "scene": "https://scene-image-url",
    "products": [
      {
        "image": "https://product-image-url",
        "coordinates": {"x": 100, "y": 200, "width": 300, "height": 400}
      }
    ]
  }'

Response Handling

Sync (single image generation)

For single image requests, pass "sync": true in the request body. The response returns the result directly — no polling needed.

Async with polling (batch generation)

For batch or multiple image generation, omit sync (or set "sync": false). The response returns a status URL to poll:

json

{
  "request_id": "uuid",
  "status_url": "https://engine.prod.bria-api.com/v2/status/uuid"
}

Poll the status_url until status: "COMPLETED", then get result.image_url.

python

import requests, time

def get_result(status_url, api_key):
    while True:
        r = requests.get(status_url, headers={"api_token": api_key, "User-Agent": "BriaSkills/1.2.5"})
        data = r.json()
        if data["status"] == "COMPLETED":
            return data["result"]["image_url"]
        if data["status"] == "FAILED":
            raise Exception(data.get("error"))
        time.sleep(2)
