Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Pika API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. Pika API generates styled images and screenshots from customizable templates. The API accepts a template ID and dynamic parameters, then renders a high-quality image suitable for social media graphics, marketing materials, and automated content generation pipelines.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Pika API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Pika API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with Pika API.
Render images from pre-configured templates with dynamic content injection
Generate social media graphics with custom text, colors, and branding
Produce styled screenshots for product marketing and documentation
Create branded visuals at scale through template-based generation
Output images in standard formats for direct use in content pipelines
Use Cases
Patterns agents use Pika API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Social Media Content Generation
Generate branded social media graphics at scale by passing dynamic content to Pika templates. The API renders images with custom text, colors, and layouts, enabling automated creation of post graphics for Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram without manual design work.
Generate an image from template ID 'social-post-1' with title 'Product Launch' and brand color #FF5733
Product Screenshot Automation
Create polished product screenshots automatically by rendering web content through styled Pika templates. The API produces marketing-ready visuals with device frames, backgrounds, and branding overlays, eliminating manual screenshot editing for product pages and documentation.
Render a product screenshot using template with a browser frame mockup and custom background gradient
Content Pipeline Image Rendering
Integrate Pika API into automated content pipelines to generate images on demand. Blog platforms, newsletter tools, and documentation systems call the API to produce header images, thumbnails, and open graph previews dynamically as new content is published.
Generate an open graph image with article title and author name for a new blog post
AI Agent Visual Content Creation
AI agents use the Pika API through Jentic to generate images without manual design tools. Agents search for image generation operations by intent, load the template rendering schema, and execute calls with Jentic handling bearer token authentication and response parsing.
Search Jentic for 'generate image from template', load the Pika templates endpoint schema, and render an image with custom text parameters

Why Jentic?
Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Pika Bearer tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens so raw API keys never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'generate image from template') and Jentic returns matching Pika operations with their input schemas, so the agent can call the right endpoint without reading docs.
Time to first call
Direct Pika integration: under 1 day for auth and template setup. Through Jentic: under 30 minutes — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs
Specific to using Pika API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Pika API?
Pika does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Pika API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.
What authentication does the Pika API use?
The Pika API uses Bearer token authentication. You include your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. Through Jentic, this token is stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected automatically into requests.
Can I generate images with custom text and branding using the Pika API?
Yes. The POST /templates/{templateId}/images endpoint accepts dynamic parameters including text content, colors, and layout options. You select a template and pass your custom values to render a branded image.
What image formats does the Pika API output?
The API generates images in standard web formats including PNG and JPEG. The output format depends on the template configuration and can typically be specified in the request parameters.
How do I generate an image through the Pika API using Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'generate image from template', load the /templates/{templateId}/images operation schema, and execute with your template ID and content parameters. Jentic handles Bearer token injection and returns the rendered image URL.
