Generate an image from a text prompt. Returns a permanent public URL. Synchronous: typically completes in 2-20 seconds. Costs a few cents, billed to the Corent account. Failed generations are never billed.

Start generating a video from a text prompt (optionally animating a source image). Asynchronous: returns a job id immediately; poll get_job until status is 'completed'. Video costs more than images (tens of cents to a few dollars depending on tier). Failed generations are never billed.

Check the status of a generation job (mainly videos). When completed, the response includes the permanent media URL and the cost. Read-only and free.

Get the Corent account's remaining balance in cents. Useful before starting expensive video generations. Read-only and free.

Get live operational status of Corent's generation tiers (operational/degraded). Read-only and free; useful to pick a healthy tier.

Preview how Corent would handle a plain-language request WITHOUT generating anything (costs a fraction of a cent). Corent decides whether it's an image or video, which tier, aspect ratio, and duration, and returns the plan plus an estimated cost. Use this to decide or confirm cost before spending. If the request is something Corent can't generate (audio, text, 3D, editing, real-world actions), can_fulfill is false with a reason.

Describe what you want in plain language and Corent plans AND generates it — choosing image vs video, tier, aspect ratio, and duration for you (the 'zero decisions' path). You MUST pass max_cost_cents as a spend ceiling; if the estimated cost exceeds it, nothing is generated and you're told the estimate so you can raise the ceiling. Image results come back with a URL; video results come back as a job id to poll with get_job. Failed generations are never billed.
