Edit with a text prompt

Recolor the skin, swap a weapon, add a crown. Pixler edits only what you ask for and keeps the pose, the face and the pixel grid.

API and MCP for AI agents

Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and six more agents through MCP, or call the REST API from your tools. Your agent generates sprites, edits them and animates sprite sheets, then saves the PNGs straight into your project.

FAQ

Yes. Use the API in your tools, or connect your AI agent through MCP. Sign in to create a token. Both use the same balance as the website.
It depends on the asset and the queue. Describe what you need, then download the result when it is ready. Animations usually take longer than images.
Plans start at $8/mo for 800 monthly credits — one per image, five per animation, so about 160 animations a month. Legendary is $20/mo for 2,500, Mythic $45/mo for 6,000. A free tier (up to 5 images a day, 50 a month) lets you try the generator first, and one-time credit packs start at $6.
You can generate and download pixel art without an account. Sign in only when you want to animate a sprite, sync your history across devices, create an API/MCP token, or upgrade — Free includes 2 animations a day.
Yes — in commercial games and products, with no attribution required. Everything you generate is yours.
Characters, items / icons / props, backgrounds and tilesets for maps — terrain, platforms and paths with every edge and corner — each on its own pipeline tuned for that kind of asset. See the tileset generator.
Lock a palette (Game Boy, NES, PICO-8 and more), keep one style, and save it as a project — every new asset is drawn into the same look. Reference images help match art you already have.
Yes — attach up to 3 reference images (a sketch, concept art, a photo of an object or an existing sprite) and pixler.dev redraws that design as pixel art at the size you pick. Handy when the model doesn't know your subject by name.
Yes — upload a PNG, JPG, WebP or GIF up to 5 MB and change it with a text instruction ("make the armor gold", "add a red cape"), or animate it if it is a sprite up to 256 px. The result stays pixel art at the size of your image.
Characters, items and platform tilesets come with transparent backgrounds (removed automatically). Backgrounds and terrain tilesets are full-frame.
Characters and items: 16 to 256 px. Tilesets: 16, 32 or 64 px tiles. Backgrounds: landscape up to 1920×1080 or portrait up to 1080×1920 for mobile games.
Yes — PNGs import into any major engine; set the texture filter to nearest for crisp edges. Tilesets also export as a Tiled .tsx or a Godot 4 TileSet with terrains ready for auto-tiling.
Yes — animate any sprite, one you generated here or your own uploaded pixel art, into a sprite sheet with 11 presets (idle, walk, run, attack…) or a custom text motion. See the animation generator.
