Interesting project! But to my mind performance benefits from GPU acceleration are not so visible in image processing (and besides servers with GPU are more expensive than CPU only). Have you made comparison between GPU and CPU implementation in terms of performance?

@dimansny1 Happy to answer your question! The whole point of having a GPU-powered API is speed. Our GPU-based implementation completely outranks any other solutions which are CPU-bound. For our customers that means blazingly-fast processing speeds and for us ability to respond to any feature requests because we are in absolute control over pixels passing through Pixaven.

@matylla Coll! According to API reference you support uploading only one file at a time (probably, I'm wrong). I would add batch uploading and processing. I think it'll improve performance.

@dimansny1 That's a valid point. Multi uploading and batch processing are both very high on our to-do list and we'll implement those features very soon.

Landing page looks very pleasing. Did you use any stock illustrations with this? Also, do you offer any free tier to try this out? To me personally $49 seems a bit steep just to test the service.

@danekrebecca Happy to answer. The illustrations you see on our landing page are created by one of our designers we work with. We took some extra time with them and are very happy with the outcome. When it comes to free tier - sure we have one! Every signup starts with a free account (no cc required) and comes with a recurring quota of 1000 API calls per month. Simply reach out to us if you need more testing quota during your integration phase!

Priime RAW

How do you think someone would use things like exposure controls? Do you just hope that the requester knows how much to adjust these things? Also, exposure increments are always different, or did you find some standard you're adhering to? I understand things like resizing, cropping, but I can't see how this would be useful realistically for manual adjustments through an API call.

I am a big fan of @matylla and he is a definitive expert on image processing and managing an at scale image infrastructure business. His products also have the added bonus of being easy to use and beautifully designed. Congrats on the launch!

Though it's not a tool I would use at this point I love your design and the thought you put into it. The illustrations stand out in particular (kudos to your designer), but the API docs are also very clean and straightforward. Great work!

@brbcoding Damn, we spent days perfecting the illustrations. We explicitly didn't want to use any stock materials and really wanted form them to stand out with a unique and clear look. I'm glad you liked them!
