Three reliable, key-less open sources (dog.ceo, TheCatAPI, catfact.ninja) behind one clean envelope. Perfect for pet adoption and veterinary apps, kids and education content, Discord/Telegram bots, placeholder imagery, quizzes and any product that needs a quick hit of dogs and cats.

Photos API

Real stock photography as an API, powered by Lorem Picsum. Browse a curated catalogue of high-resolution photos with their author and dimensions, look up any photo by id, or build a ready-to-embed image URL on the fly — pick a width and height and get a random photo, pass a seed for a stable deterministic image (the same seed always returns the same photo, ideal for consistent placeholders per user or item), or target a specific photo by id, with optional grayscale and blur. No accounts, no attribution headaches: every image is a clean, hotlinkable URL. Perfect for mockups and design comps, blog and CMS placeholders, app prototypes, test fixtures and any layout that needs real imagery instead of grey boxes.

Avatar API

Generate deterministic avatars and identicons from any seed — the same seed always renders the exact same avatar, so user IDs, usernames or emails map to stable, unique profile pictures with no storage. 30 art styles (bottts robots, pixel-art, avataaars, identicon, lorelei, notionists, fun-emoji, shapes, rings and more), returned as ready-to-use SVG markup or a base64 PNG data-URI, with options for size, corner radius, background colour and flip. Backed by DiceBear. Ideal for default user avatars, comment/forum placeholders, dashboards, game characters, test fixtures and any UI that needs an instant, reproducible profile image.

Docker Hub API

The container image registry — Docker Hub — as an API. Look up any image (repository) for its description, total pull count and star count, official status, last-updated date and categories, plus the ready-to-run `docker pull` command; list an image's tags and versions with each tag's compressed size, supported platforms (linux/amd64, linux/arm64, …) and publish date; and search the registry of millions of images. Covers everything from official images like nginx, postgres, redis, node, python and ubuntu to vendor images like bitnami/postgresql. Live from the official hub.docker.com API. Ideal for DevOps dashboards, CI/CD and supply-chain tooling, image catalogs and update automation. Open data from Docker Hub.

Wikimedia Commons API

Search millions of freely-licensed images and media as an API, from Wikimedia Commons. Pass a search term and get matching photos and illustrations with their direct full-resolution image URL, a ready-to-use thumbnail, dimensions, file size, MIME type, and crucially the licence (Creative Commons or public domain), licence URL and author/credit — everything you need to find and correctly attribute reusable media. Or look up a single file by name for its full details. Ideal for blogs, content and marketing tools, presentations, education and apps that need free, attributable imagery. Open data from Wikimedia Commons (always check each file's licence before reuse).
