Image Generator

Text-to-image tools are everywhere now, but keeping one fast and abuse-resistant under real public traffic is a different problem than demoing it in a notebook.

The Idea

Type a caption, get a generated image back, powered by an external AI image-generation service under the hood.

The Real Work

Performance and resilience were the focus: the backend had to stay responsive under heavy concurrent load while shrugging off automated abuse. A bespoke throttling layer sits in front of every outbound API call, with limits tunable live from an internal admin dashboard — no redeploy required.

• External AI image-generation API integration
• Custom, live-tunable request throttling layer
• Internal admin dashboard for operational control

The Result

A lightweight, production-hardened tool that turns plain-text prompts into images without the infrastructure buckling under traffic.
