Qwen Image 3.0 Pro API
Qwen Image 3.0 Pro is an image generation and editing model developed by Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen team, entering limited cloud preview on Alibaba Cloud Model Studio on July 21, 2026. The model supports both text-to-image (T2I) and image-to-image/image editing (I2I), capable of generating images from text prompts or editing images based on 1–3 reference images combined with editing instructions. It features industry-leading complex text rendering capabilities, supporting 12 languages and 20+ fonts with multi-line layout and paragraph-level text generation.
The iCreat platform exposes its capabilities via the endpoint https://api.icreat.ai/v1/task/submit/aliyun/qwen-image-3-0-pro, operating in an asynchronous three-step mode with PNG output format.
Model Positioning
Qwen Image 3.0 Pro is positioned as a high-quality image generation and editing model for production-grade asset creation. Compared to the standard version qwen-image-3.0, the Pro variant offers superior image quality, text rendering precision, and complex composition capabilities. The model excels at visual materials requiring layout judgment and reliable typography, such as newspapers, menus, exam papers, posters, web pages, and game interfaces. The official supported resolution range spans total pixels from 512×512 to 2048×2048, with PNG output format. The iCreat platform offers tiered pricing by image size (1K and 2K).

Architecture
The iCreat platform's Qwen Image 3.0 Pro operates using an asynchronous three-step architecture. Users submit tasks via the submission endpoint, and the system returns a task ID. The task status is then polled via the query-status endpoint, and once complete, the final image result is retrieved via the get-result endpoint. Requests must include the API Key in the Authorization header for authentication. The request body uses a messages-style structure, where the input object contains a messages array (role set to user, content combining text and images), and the parameters object controls watermark and resolution settings. The model ID is included in the submission endpoint URL path; the request body does not use a model field.
Notes
- Reference images must be publicly accessible URLs; private or authenticated image addresses may cause task failure
- The model is currently in limited preview with an official rate limit of 1 request per minute, suitable for evaluation and early development
- The size parameter should select a resolution from the pricing table; non-standard sizes may cause billing anomalies
- 2K tier pricing is higher than 1K; please select the appropriate resolution based on your needs
- The output format is fixed to PNG; other output formats are not currently supported
- Please safeguard your API Key and avoid hardcoding it in client-side code or public repositories
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the billing calculated?
Billing is calculated per output image. The 1K size tier is priced at $0.04/image, and the 2K size tier is priced at $0.075/image. For example, generating one 1024×1024 image costs $0.04, and generating one 2048×2048 image costs $0.075. The iCreat platform price shall prevail.
What input modes are supported?
The model supports both text-to-image (T2I) and image-to-image/image editing (I2I). In T2I mode, the content array contains only text fields; in I2I mode, the content array can include 1–3 reference image fields and a text field with editing instructions.
What values does the size parameter support?
1K tier: 1024x1024, 1280x720, 720x1280, 1024x768, 768x1024, 1280x960, 960x1280. 2K tier: 2048x2048, 2560x1440, 1440x2560, 2048x1536, 1536x2048. Default is 1024x1024. The official model supports any size with total pixels between 512×512 and 2048×2048.
Can multiple images be generated?
Qwen Image 3.0 Pro generates 1 image per request. To generate multiple images, use multiple requests. The predecessor qwen-image-2.0-pro supports generating 1–6 images per request.
How is the text rendering capability?
The model supports text rendering in 12 languages and 20+ fonts, handling multi-line layouts and paragraph-level text generation, with a minimum text size of approximately 10 pixels and image-within-image composition, suitable for production-grade asset creation requiring precise text output.
What does the watermark parameter do?
The watermark parameter controls whether an AIGC watermark is added to the bottom-right corner of the generated image. It defaults to false (no watermark); set to true to add the watermark.
