Response Body
curl -X POST "https://api.createa.meme/v1/meme/ai-image" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "prompt": "a confused cat staring at a laptop with deployment errors on the screen, dramatic lighting", "caption": { "top": "It works on my machine", "bottom": "My machine was lying" }, "model": "gpt-image", "aspect_ratio": "1:1", "style_preset": "meme_classic" }'Flagship: AI picks template + writes caption
Provide a prompt; the API picks matching templates, writes captions, and renders memes. Returns one meme by default. Pass `count: N` (1–12) to get multiple variations in a single call. **Billing is per-meme: cost = 2 credits × count**, so `count: 1` costs 2 credits, `count: 4` costs 8 credits, `count: 12` costs 24 credits.
