#Pixault Documentation

Pixault is an image processing CDN and API that handles upload, storage, transformation, watermarking, and global delivery of images. Build responsive, optimized image pipelines without managing infrastructure.

#What Pixault Does

  • Upload images via REST API or SDK

  • Transform on-the-fly: resize, crop, blur, watermark, format conversion

  • Deliver globally through edge CDN with immutable caching

  • Track usage with built-in bandwidth, storage, and request metering

#How It Works

Your App → Upload API → Cloud Storage
                           ↓
User Request → CDN Edge → Pixault API → Transform → Cache → Respond
                  ↓
              Cache Hit → Serve instantly (zero origin traffic)

Every image is addressable by a URL that encodes the desired transformations:

https://img.pixault.io/{project}/{imageId}/{transforms}.{format}

For example:

https://img.pixault.io/myapp/img_01JK/w_800,h_600,fit_cover,q_85.webp
