Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`prompt`	string	Required	—
`seed`	integer	Optional	Seed for the random number generator
`aspect_ratio`	string	Optional	The aspect ratio of the generated image. · Options: 21:9, 16:9, 3:2, 4:3, 5:4, 1:1, 4:5, 3:4, 2:3, 9:16 · Default: "16:9" 21:916:93:24:35:41:14:53:42:39:16

Output Schema

Field	Type	Description
`id`	string	Unique identifier for the generation task
`status`	string	Task status: pending, running, completed, failed, timeout
`model`	string	Model used for the generation
`outputs`	array	Array of output items
`outputs[].url`	string	URL of the generated artifact
`outputs[].content_type`	string	MIME type (e.g. image/png, video/mp4)

Async Workflow

This model uses asynchronous execution. Submit a request and poll for the result.

Submit — POST to /v1/run, receive an id
Poll — GET /v1/run/{id} until status is completed, failed, or timeout
Retrieve — Read outputs from the completed response

API README

Ideogram V2 Turbo

ideogram-ai/ideogram-v2/turbo creates original images from written art direction with a particular strength in typography, graphic composition, and prompt fidelity. Ideogram V2 balances realistic image generation with accurate embedded text, making it effective for posters, packaging concepts, ads, logos, and designed imagery; the Turbo tier prioritizes faster, lower-cost iteration for exploring layouts and visual directions. This combination makes the model a practical choice when the creative outcome depends on those qualities rather than on a generic media conversion.

For production work with ideogram-ai/ideogram-v2/turbo, the workflow fits visual concepts that must combine readable wording with a coherent scene, while style and framing direction can move the result between photography, illustration, and graphic design. The result is most reliable when the source material and creative brief clearly describe the intended subject, progression, visual or sonic character, and the qualities that must remain unchanged.

Highlights

Rapid text-to-image synthesis. Converts detailed prompts into reviewable visual concepts with the speed-oriented V2 path.

Fast typography ideation. Explores posters, labels, headlines, and logo-like lettering without waiting for a quality-tier render.

High-volume composition testing. Generates many framing and style alternatives for creative selection at lower cost.

Broad visual range. Retains V2's ability to move among photography, illustration, cinematic imagery, and graphic design.

When to Use

✅ Good fit	❌ Consider alternatives
The model's named workflow matches the source material and intended output	A different input modality or model route is required
A managed asynchronous result is suitable for the production pipeline	A synchronous, interactive editor is essential
The documented controls cover the required duration, framing, or format	The project needs controls outside this endpoint's schema
Creative iteration benefits from a repeatable request structure	Exact deterministic pixels, frames, geometry, or samples are mandatory
A finished downloadable media asset is the desired deliverable	Editable source layers or a native project file are required

Prompt Guide

For generation, state the intended result first, then add the subject or source treatment, progression, style, and delivery constraints. Keep one creative variable per phrase, use the documented field names for controls, and change one setting at a time when comparing results.
