# An NSFW image generation API: uncensored image models on one OpenAI compatible endpoint

_2026-11-10. Generate NSFW and uncensored images by API: Lustify, PornMaster, Pony, Illustrious anime, Juggernaut XL, Qwen Image 3 and more on one OpenAI compatible endpoint with no account. Models, code and which to pick._

Most image APIs refuse anything adult. OpenAI, Google and the big hosted APIs block nudity outright, and many
"uncensored" sites only work in their own web app, with no API. OpenUncensored serves 17 uncensored image
models, including the explicit Lustify, PornMaster and Pony checkpoints and the most popular anime models, through
one OpenAI compatible endpoint. If your code already calls `client.images.generate`, change the base URL and it works.

## The models

| Model | id | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| [Z-Image Turbo](https://openuncensored.com/models/z-image-turbo) | `z-image-turbo` | Photoreal | Fast, cheap, follows plain English prompts. The best default. |
| [Lustify v8](https://openuncensored.com/models/lustify-v8) | `lustify-v8` | Explicit photo | SDXL fine-tune built for explicit adult photography. The most permissive photo model. |
| [Lustify v7](https://openuncensored.com/models/lustify-v7) | `lustify-v7` | Explicit photo | The previous Lustify release. Some prefer its skin tones. |
| [Lustify SDXL](https://openuncensored.com/models/lustify-sdxl) | `lustify-sdxl` | Explicit photo | The original Lustify checkpoint. |
| [Chroma](https://openuncensored.com/models/chroma) | `chroma` | General | Uncensored FLUX.1-schnell derivative. Strongest at following long, detailed prompts. |

| [PornMaster](https://openuncensored.com/models/pornmaster) | `pornmaster` | Explicit photo | SDXL checkpoint for explicit adult photography. |
| [Pony Diffusion V6 XL](https://openuncensored.com/models/pony-diffusion-v6) | `pony-diffusion-v6` | Stylised / Pony | The original Pony model for stylised and adult art. Needs score tags. |

| [Pony Realism](https://openuncensored.com/models/pony-realism) | `pony-realism` | Stylised / Pony | Realistic Pony fine-tune for adult content. Needs score tags. |
| [WAI Illustrious](https://openuncensored.com/models/wai-illustrious) | `wai-illustrious` | Anime | The most popular Illustrious anime checkpoint. Start with "masterpiece, best quality". |
| [Hassaku XL](https://openuncensored.com/models/hassaku-xl) | `hassaku-xl` | Anime | Illustrious based anime checkpoint for adult art. |
| [NoobAI XL](https://openuncensored.com/models/noobai-xl) | `noobai-xl` | Anime | Illustrious derived base trained on Danbooru and e621 tags. Prompt with booru tags. |

Models marked as Civitai checkpoints run on Civitai's own generator, and their creators get a share of every image.

Every model is routed to its cheapest provider, with automatic fallback to the next one if a provider is down.

## Call it

```bash
curl https://openuncensored.com/api/v1/images/generations \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OU_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model": "z-image-turbo", "prompt": "a woman in a red dress on a rooftop at night, neon city behind her, cinematic", "size": "1024x1024"}'
```

The response is the standard OpenAI shape: `data[0].b64_json` (or `data[0].url` for some providers) plus an `ou`
object with the provider and the cost of the request. With the OpenAI Python SDK:

```python
import base64, urllib.request
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(base_url="https://openuncensored.com/api/v1", api_key="ou-...")

result = client.images.generate(
    model="lustify-v8",
    prompt="boudoir photo of a woman in her thirties, soft window light, 85mm, film grain",
    size="1024x1536",
)
image = result.data[0]
data = base64.b64decode(image.b64_json) if image.b64_json else urllib.request.urlopen(image.url).read()
open("boudoir.png", "wb").write(data)
```

## Parameters

- `model`: an id from the table, or `GET https://openuncensored.com/api/v1/images/models` for the live list with prices.
- `prompt`: up to 8000 characters.
- `size`: `1024x1024` (default), `1024x1536`, `1536x1024`, `1024x1792`, `1792x1024` or `512x512`.
- `n`: 1 to 4 images. Each one is billed.
- `negative_prompt`: what to keep out of the image, for the Civitai checkpoints, for example `"blurry, extra fingers,
  watermark"`.

Nothing is stored on our side: the image comes back in the response and is gone from our servers.

## Which one to pick

- **Photoreal, safe default:** `z-image-turbo`. Fast and cheap, and good at plain sentences.
- **Explicit photography:** `lustify-v8`, or `pornmaster` and `cyberrealistic-xl` for a different look.
- **Anime and hentai style:** `wai-illustrious` or `noobai-xl` with booru style tags.
- **Stylised and furry art:** `pony-diffusion-v6` with Pony score tags.
- **Highest detail:** `qwen-image-3-uncensored` at `1536x1024` or larger, which it renders at 2K.

The [prompting guide](https://openuncensored.com/blog/best-nsfw-image-models) compares them in more detail, with the prompt format each
one expects.

## No code? Use the desktop app

The [OpenUncensored desktop app](https://openuncensored.com/blog/nsfw-image-generator-desktop-app) has the same image models built in as
a tool. Ask its uncensored assistant for a picture in plain words and it writes the prompt, picks a model and saves the
images to a folder on your Mac.

## What is allowed

Adult content between adults is allowed on every model listed here. Three things are not, and the providers refuse
them: anything involving minors or anyone who looks underage, real people (celebrities, people you know, lookalikes)
without their consent, and non consensual imagery.
If you publish what you make, label it as AI generated and follow the rules of the site you post on.

## Get a key

No account and no sign up. Buy prepaid credits at [openuncensored.com/credits](https://openuncensored.com/credits) and you get an
`ou-...` key. The same key works for every text and image model, in the API, the [playground](https://openuncensored.com/chat) and the
[desktop app](https://openuncensored.com/download). Each image is billed from your credits, typically one to five cents; the
[models page](https://openuncensored.com/models) shows the live price of each one.
