Artbreeder AI Image Creator

🎨 Artbreeder AI Image Creator for prompts

Artbreeder AI Image Creator generates images from text prompts on Artbreeder. Add one or more prompts, choose a model and shape, then export generated image URLs, dimensions, safety flags, model settings, seeds, and source metadata from an Apify dataset.

Use this Actor when you need repeatable Artbreeder text-to-image output for creative testing, design research, mood boards, content drafts, product mockups, or prompt experiments. Instead of opening Artbreeder by hand for each prompt, you can run a small batch in Apify Console, call it through the Apify API, schedule runs, or export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or HTML.

For a quick first run, keep the sample prompt, leave Images per prompt set to 1, and use the default SDXL Lightning model. Once the result shape looks right, add more prompts or adjust the model, shape, negative prompt, guidance scale, inference steps, and seed.

✅ What this Actor does

• Generates Artbreeder images from one or more text prompts.
• Saves one dataset row per successfully generated image.
• Supports the planned Artbreeder model options: Flux Dev, Flux Schnell, Flux Krea, SDXL Lightning, SD 3.5 Large, SD 3.5 Medium, and SDXL 1.0.
• Supports square, wider, wide, tall, and taller image shapes.
• Lets you set a negative prompt, guidance scale, inference steps, and an optional seed.
• Includes NSFW safety flags returned by Artbreeder.
• Adds source and run metadata so each row is easy to trace.
• Skips failure/status placeholder rows; the dataset contains generated images only.

You do not need to provide Artbreeder cookies, an Artbreeder login, or an Artbreeder API key. The Actor is built for the public prompt generation flow available to the run.

📦 Data you can export

Each output item represents one generated Artbreeder image. Fields include:

• prompt and promptIndex
• imageUrl
• width and height
• model
• shape
• isNsfw
• generatedAt
• settings.guidanceScale
• settings.numInferenceSteps
• settings.seed
• settings.imagesPerPrompt
• settings.negativePrompt when you provide one
• safety.isNsfw
• safety.topWords when Artbreeder returns safety or topic signals
• sourcePlatform
• sourceUrl

The image URL is the generated image asset returned by Artbreeder. Store it promptly if your workflow needs a long-lived copy, because source-hosted generated media URLs can be time-bound.

🚀 How to run

1. Add one or more image prompts in Prompts.
2. Keep Images per prompt at 1 for the first run.
3. Choose an Artbreeder model and shape.
4. Optionally add a negative prompt, seed, guidance scale, or inference steps.
5. Start the Actor.
6. Open the dataset and use imageUrl for each generated image.

Example prompt ideas:

a small red glass apple on a clean white table, studio photo
a cozy reading nook with warm morning light, interior design render
a futuristic sneaker product photo on a reflective floor

🧾 Input

{
	"prompts": [
		"a small red glass apple on a clean white table, studio photo"
	],
	"imagesPerPrompt": 1,
	"modelVersion": "sdxl-1.0-lightning",
	"shape": "square",
	"guidanceScale": 1,
	"numInferenceSteps": 4
}

✍️ Prompts

Enter text-to-image prompts. Clear, visual prompts work best. Include the subject, medium, scene, style, lighting, or composition you care about.

⚙️ Generation settings

Use Model to choose the Artbreeder generation model. Use Shape to pick the image aspect ratio. Use Negative prompt when you want to avoid specific visual elements such as blur, text, watermarks, or extra limbs.

Guidance scale, Inference steps, and Seed are advanced controls for prompt experiments. Leave them at the defaults for a simple first run.

💸 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You are charged for each generated image that is successfully saved to the dataset. Invalid input, skipped generations, and runs that do not save generated images do not create generated-image events.

There is no separate Actor-start charge in this pricing artifact.

⚠️ Limits and caveats

The Actor depends on Artbreeder returning generated images for the selected model and prompt. Source-side capacity, safety handling, unavailable models, or temporary generation errors can affect a run.

The dataset contains successful generated-image rows only. If a prompt cannot be generated, the run reports the outcome in logs instead of saving a failure row that could pollute exports.

Generated media URLs are returned as source URLs. If you need a permanent asset archive, download or copy the images into your own storage after the run.

❓ FAQ

🔐 Do I need an Artbreeder account?

No. The Actor does not ask for Artbreeder cookies, login details, or an API key.

🔢 Can I generate more than one image per prompt?

Yes. Use Images per prompt to choose how many images to save for each prompt.

💾 Does it download image files into Apify storage?

No. The Actor returns generated image URLs and metadata in the dataset. It does not save binary image files to key-value storage.

🧹 Are failed generations saved as rows?

No. Dataset rows are only generated images. Warnings and handled input issues are shown in the run logs.
