# Introduction

> Generate images, videos, audio, and 3D models with the Artificial Studio API.

Artificial Studio provides a single API to generate images, videos, audio, and 3D models using state-of-the-art AI models. Send a request, get a result — it's that simple.

## Base URL

All API requests use the following base URL:

```
https://api.artificialstudio.ai
```

## How it works

Every generation follows the same three-step pattern:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Send a request">
    Call `POST /api/run` with a tool, model, and input parameters. You get back a generation ID immediately.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wait for the result">
    Poll `GET /api/generations/:id` or use [webhooks](/api/webhook) to get notified when the generation is ready.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get your output">
    The completed generation includes an `output` URL pointing to your generated media.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Quick example

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://api.artificialstudio.ai/api/run \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "tool": "create-image",
    "input": {
      "prompt": "A serene mountain landscape at sunset"
    }
  }'
```

```json theme={null}
{
  "id": "507f1f77bcf86cd799439011",
  "status": "processing",
  "tool": "create-image",
  "createdAt": "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z"
}
```
