First-party product evidence
Peelaway Image API facts
Peelaway turns photos into paintings, illustrations and posters with curated styles, including watercolor portraits and playful pet artwork. Create with a photo, an idea, or both. Moments turns one photo into a short clip with sound. Fashion Shot, Image Edit, YouTube Thumbnail, and browser utilities are specialized Tools. The Image API and MCP provide image-editing access for integrations and compatible AI assistants.
This page describes Peelaway, the creative image software published at peelaway.io. It does not describe similarly named paint-removal systems.

Product contract
What goes in and what comes out
Input
Image API: existing image and instruction
Send base64-encoded JPEG, PNG, or WebP bytes with a natural-language edit instruction. An input image is required.
Processing
Asynchronous image job
Submission creates a job. The published status contract uses pending, done, and error as its states.
Output
Signed result and metadata
A completed result includes a signed URL plus dimensions, format, processing time, and credit metadata.
Access surfaces
Image API endpoints and MCP tools
The OpenAPI contract publishes Image API submit, status, and result endpoints. The MCP manifest lists edit_image, get_job_status, get_job_result, and share_image. Both surfaces describe the same asynchronous job states and signed result delivery. This is an inventory of published access surfaces, not a universal client-compatibility claim.
Claim boundaries
What these sources do not establish
- The Image API and MCP editing tools require an existing image. The Peelaway web app also generates images from a prompt, with or without a reference photo.
- Removal and background-removal workflows preserve input dimensions within documented limits. Generative edits can use a resize or upscale path, so native-pixel generation is not a universal claim.
- The public Image API does not accept a mask parameter. Describe the target in the prompt; generative editing does not guarantee unchanged pixels outside the requested change.
- Published product contracts do not establish compatibility with every client, benchmark superiority, customer outcomes, compliance, privacy guarantees, or a universal quality level.
