Learn how to implement custom front-end solutions for AI/BI projects using Prodia’s Genie API, enabling seamless generative AI integration.

Why You Need a Custom AI Front End

Every creative professional or developer wants an interface that feels like home. A Custom AI Front End gives you:

Tailored workflows.
Quick media generation.
A seamless bridge between your app and powerful AI.

Think of it like designing your dream car—inside and out.

Introducing Prodia’s Genie API

Prodia’s Genie API is a developer-first generative AI service. It’s built to power your Custom AI Front End with:

Ultra-low latency: 190 ms output speed, no GPU overhead.
Easy integration: Clean REST endpoints you can call from any stack.
Versatile tasks: Image generation, inpainting, background removal, and more.
Reliable scaling: Handle spikes in usage without breaking a sweat.

The Genie API sits between your user interface and the heavy lifting of AI models. Your code stays simple. Your users stay happy.

Getting Started: Your Environment Setup

Let’s dive in. Here’s what you need:

A Prodia account (grab your API key at https://docs.prodia.com).
Node .js or Python installed on your machine.
A simple HTML/CSS front end—nothing fancy.

Then, install the SDK or use Axios/fetch for raw HTTP calls.

npm install axios

Designing Your Custom AI Front End

A great Custom AI Front End balances form and function:

Show a spinner or progress bar during calls.
Offer prompt suggestions or templates.
Display results inline—no page reloads.
Handle errors gracefully (timeouts, rate limits).

Example layout:

Text input for prompts.
“Generate” button.
Image grid or chat bubble area.

Keep it simple. Every extra pixel slows you down.

Making Your First API Call

Here’s a Node.js snippet to generate an image:

const axios = require('axios');

async function generateImage(prompt) {
  const response = await axios.post(
    'https://api.prodia.com/v1/genie/generate',
    {
      prompt,
      width: 512,
      height: 512
    },
    {
      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer YOUR_API_KEY` }
    }
  );
  return response.data.image_url;
}

generateImage('A colourful abstract painting')
  .then(url => console.log('Image URL:', url))
  .catch(err => console.error('Error:', err.message));

Plug this into your front end. Hook up the input field and button:

<input id="prompt" placeholder="Describe your scene" />
<button id="go">Generate</button>
<img id="result" />
<script>
  document.getElementById('go').onclick = async () => {
    const prompt = document.getElementById('prompt').value;
    const url = await generateImage(prompt);
    document.getElementById('result').src = url;
  };
</script>

Voilà. Your custom interface talks to the Genie API.

Advanced Features to Power Your UI

Beyond straight image creation, Prodia’s Genie API offers:

Inpainting: Let users fix or edit images on the fly.
Background removal: Perfect for e-commerce or marketing assets.
Batch processing: Generate multiple assets in one request.

Imagine a two-pane editor where one side shows the original photo, the other displays Prodia’s magic touch.

Best Practices for a Smooth Experience

Your users expect speed and reliability. Here’s how to keep them happy:

Implement retry logic for transient errors.
Cache repeated prompts locally.
Respect rate limits—throttle requests if needed.
Show clear error messages (‘Try again in a moment.’).

A polished Custom AI Front End handles hiccups without freaking out.

Real-World Use Cases

Let’s talk applications:

E-commerce: Auto-generate product images with uniform backgrounds.
Creative tools: Build an in-browser art studio.
Content management: Let editors whip up hero images for blog posts.

Every sector—from gaming to advertising—can benefit.

Wrapping Up

Building a Custom AI Front End is about more than code. It’s about crafting an experience that puts users first. Prodia’s Genie API gives you the speed, flexibility, and power you need, without wrestling with infrastructure.

The good news? You can launch your first front end in under 10 minutes. No GPUs. No model training. Just clean endpoints and stunning results.
