  "markdown": "## Overview\n\n**Grade F · 37.3/100 · rank #1355 of 1486 · #15 in Programmatic asset production · not agent-ready · confidence medium**\n\n\n## Assessment\n\nPixelixe's seven MCP tools and their LLM-oriented reference make template fills and JSON-to-graphic creation simple to call, with an OpenAPI file for the core endpoints. Every error comes back as a 400 with a message, there are no published rate limits, status page or changelog, and API access starts at $59 a month.\n\n## Facts\n\n| Field | Value |\n| --- | --- |\n| Vendor | Pixelixe (https://pixelixe.com) |\n| Kind | HTTP API |\n| Category | Programmatic asset production (https://www.anchorterminal.com/categories/design-assets) |\n| Transport | HTTP, Streamable HTTP |\n| Endpoint | `https://studio.pixelixe.com/api` |\n| Auth | OAuth or key · REST calls send the account's API key as `Authorization: Bearer`, from the account after signup; a separate public key is for embedding the editor in a web page. The remote MCP server at studio.pixelixe.com/api/mcp/v1 takes the API key or an OAuth access token from studio.pixelixe.com/oauth/mcp, with one `pixelixe.mcp` scope. No key scopes or rotation documented. |\n| Pricing | Paid ($59 / mo) · API access starts with Automate at $59 a month (20,000 automated documents, 140 AI actions). Scale $119 (60,000), Enterprise from $299 (300,000 and up). Create at $12 a month has no API. 10-day trial with no card. No per-image price. |\n| x402 | No · Monthly plans. No x402, MPP or L402 in the OpenAPI, the v2 docs, the MCP docs or llms.txt (checked 2026-11-06). Exhausted credits return 400 with a message. |\n| Licence | Closed service under the Pixelixe terms of service (last modified 19 March 2026) |\n| Tools exposed | 7 |\n| MCP registry name | `com.pixelixe/pixelixe-mcp` |\n| Docs | https://pixelixe.com/docs/v2/ |\n| llms.txt | https://pixelixe.com/llms.txt |\n| Last release | 2026-03-26 |\n| Surface listed | The REST API on studio.pixelixe.com and the remote MCP server at studio.pixelixe.com/api/mcp/v1, read from the v2 docs, the MCP reference, the OpenAPI file, llms.txt, the pricing page, the terms and privacy policy, the OAuth metadata and the MCP registry on 6 November 2026. No account was made and no tool was called |\n| MCP tools | pixelixe_get_tool_docs, pixelixe_search_documents, pixelixe_get_document, pixelixe_search_design_sets, pixelixe_generate_graphic_variant, pixelixe_create_multiple_images, pixelixe_create_graphic_from_json |\n| Outputs | PNG, JPEG, PDF, HTML or a hosted image URL; Design Sets render several formats from one payload |\n| Plans | Create $12 a month (Studio only, no API), Automate $59 (20,000 automated documents), Scale $119 (60,000), Enterprise from $299 (300,000 and up) |\n| Operator | The terms choose French law and the courts of Paris, with inquiries@pixelixe.com as contact.

Confidence: medium. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. \"This run\" is each category's share of the 100 points.\n\n| Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% | 20 | 15 | 3.0 |\n| Performance | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% | 16.2 | 66 | 10.7 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% | 16.2 | 49 | 8.0 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% | 17.5 | 38 | 6.7 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% | 12.5 | 30 | 3.8 |\n| Task success | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% | 8.8 | 19 | 1.7 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust (editorial 32, provenance 49) | 7% | 8.8 | 41 | 3.6 |\n| Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 |\n| **Total** | | | | **37.3 → F** |\n\n### Why each score\n\n- Reliability 15 (checked 2026-11-06): Hosted lines. No status page found on the site or in the docs (0). No readable incident history (5). No rate limit is published; the terms only forbid circumventing them (0). No 429, Retry-After or backoff guidance. Every error, a wrong key and exhausted credits included, is a 400 with a message (0). No SLA found; the terms supply the service as is (0). API v2 is current and not labelled beta (10). 0 + 5 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 15.\n- Performance: Pending. Latency is measured per call by our probes, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until the first probe window closes.\n- Schema \u0026 documentation 66 (checked 2026-11-06): OpenAPI 3.1 (version 2.0.0) at pixelixe.com/pixelixe-openapi.json, but it covers four endpoints, authentication, document search, graphic automation and photo effects, and leaves out the JSON-to-graphic and image processing APIs (18 of 25). llms.txt exists but routes readers to marketing pages; the MCP reference is written for LLMs (7 of 10). The MCP reference says what each of the seven tools maps to, that `pixelixe_generate_graphic_variant` 'is not a free-form layout API', lists common mistakes and how to present outputs (17 of 20). The MCP layer documents canonical field names and refuses legacy aliases; the REST modifications are open structures keyed by element name (10 of 15). Request examples throughout, but errors are one table of message strings all returning 400 (8 of 15). /v2 paths and a deprecated V1, with no changelog (6 of 15). 18 + 7 + 17 + 10 + 8 + 6 = 66.\n- Agent ergonomics 49 (checked 2026-11-06): Seven compact MCP tools (25). Document and design-set search filters, with no pagination documented (10 of 20). All errors are 400 with free-text messages, so an agent can't branch on a code (6 of 20). No idempotency keys, and annotations couldn't be read on the closed server. The MCP tools only read and create, with nothing that deletes (5 of 20). Few required fields, but no official SDK (3 of 15). 25 + 10 + 6 + 5 + 3 = 49.\n- Security \u0026 auth 38 (checked 2026-11-06): A bearer API key per account, plus a public key for the embedded editor. The MCP server accepts the key or an OAuth token from studio.pixelixe.com/oauth/mcp with one `pixelixe.mcp` scope. No key scopes, rotation or revocation documented (18 of 30). No read-only mode, though the MCP tools can't delete or change account settings (10 of 20). Tools return the account's own templates and renders (10 of 15). No audit log or per-call record documented (0). No security.txt, disclosure policy, bug bounty or certification found (0). 18 + 10 + 10 + 0 + 0 = 38.\n- Payments \u0026 pricing 30 (checked 2026-11-06): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Plan prices with monthly document counts are public, with no per-image price (10). 10-day trial with no card (20). A person signs up and copies the key, or approves OAuth in a browser (0). 0 + 10 + 20 + 0 = 30.\n- Task success: Pending. Task success needs the category task suites run through each tool, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until then. A data provider's data-quality score is published on its listing now and becomes half of this category when it's scored.\n- Maintenance \u0026 community 19 (checked 2026-11-06): No dated release or API change was found. The newest dated items are the MCP registry entry of 26 March 2026 and the privacy policy of 7 April 2026, more than 180 days before this check (0). No three dated changes since 8 August (0). No changelog. Support by email at inquiries@pixelixe.com, not tested (4 of 15). com.pixelixe/pixelixe-mcp is in the official MCP registry under a domain-verified namespace; there are no official SDKs (15). No public package or repository (0). 0 + 0 + 4 + 15 + 0 = 19.\n- Transparency \u0026 trust 41 (checked 2026-11-06): Closed service under terms of 19 March 2026 that choose French law but name no company (12 of 30). The privacy policy of 7 April 2026 keeps account data while the account is active and 'as long as reasonably necessary' after, with no periods, and says nothing about AI processing or training (10 of 30). V1 is marked deprecated in the docs with no dates or notice period (5 of 20). Processors are described only by category, with Google Analytics named, and data processed in France, the EEA and other vendor countries (5 of 20). 12 + 10 + 5 + 5 = 32.\n\nFix list, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (18 items). What it covers is at https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/pixelixe.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/pixelixe.json). The whole list for a coding agent comes from `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/fix-list` with `{\"listing\": \"pixelixe\", \"plan\": \"read\"}`, free while the beta runs\n\n### What we couldn't check\n\n- Who operates Pixelixe: the terms and privacy policy name no company or address.\n- The rate limits: none are published.\n- Whether the MCP server sets tool annotations: it is closed and no session was opened.\n- Investors were not looked for beyond the about page, which names no team or backers.\n\n### Sources\n\n- v2 API docs and error table: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/docs/v2/\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- MCP reference: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/docs/mcp/\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- OpenAPI 3.1: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/pixelixe-openapi.json\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- llms.txt: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/llms.txt\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- pricing: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/pricing.html\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- terms of service: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/terms.html\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- privacy policy: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/privacy-policy.html\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- MCP protected-resource metadata: \u003chttps://studio.pixelixe.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/api/mcp/v1\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- official MCP registry entry: \u003chttps://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0/servers?search=pixelixe\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n- about page: \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/about.html\u003e (seen 2026-11-06)\n\n## Score history\n\nEvery move of a score since the listing was graded, newest first, with its cause.

GitHub: https://github.com/thomasthelliez\n- Note: No person is named on pixelixe.com's about, contact, FAQ, docs, terms or privacy pages, read 6 November 2026. Thomas Thelliez's own site, thomasthelliez.com, says he is \"Founder of Pixelixe, a profitable visual automation platform launched in 2018 and grown primarily through SEO, APIs and product-led utility\" and calls it a side project; his GitHub account (thomasthelliez) links that site. The terms (19 March 2026) name the operator only as Pixelixe, under French law and the courts of Paris, with inquiries@pixelixe.com as contact, so the status stays unknown. Investors were looked for on the same pages and with one search; none is named, and the founder's site describes Pixelixe as profitable and grown through SEO. Product Hunt's maker pages sit behind a bot check and weren't read.\n\n### Getting support\n\n- Support email: inquiries@pixelixe.com\n- Help: https://pixelixe.com/docs/help-center/mcp-connectors-setup.html\n- Help: https://pixelixe.com/contact.html\n- Sources: https://pixelixe.com/about.html, https://pixelixe.com/contact.html, https://pixelixe.com/terms.html, https://pixelixe.com/privacy-policy.html, https://thomasthelliez.com/\n\n## Live (updated 2026-11-07 17:49 UTC)\n\n- Right now: up, HTTP 404, 35 ms, checked 2026-11-07 17:49 UTC (get on `https://studio.pixelixe.com/api`)\n- Uptime 24h 100.0% (195 probes) · 30 days 100.0% (195 probes) · p50 33 ms · p95 119 ms\n- security.txt: none\n- Watching privacy \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/privacy-policy.html\u003e\n- Watching terms \u003chttps://pixelixe.com/terms.html\u003e\n- Tools: the endpoint asks for credentials before listing them (checked 2026-11-07 01:46 UTC)\n- Always current: https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/live/pixelixe.json\n\n## Probe metrics\n\nNot measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. Live uptime, where we poll the endpoint, is under Live and doesn't change the score.\n\n## Prices\n\n| Item | Price | Unit | Note |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Automate plan | $59 | per month (plan) | 20,000 automated documents and 140 AI actions a month |\n| Scale plan | $119 | per month (plan) | 60,000 automated documents and 280 AI actions a month |\n\nAcross all listings: https://www.anchorterminal.com/prices/index.md\n\n## Strengths\n\n- Seven compact MCP tools with a reference that states the canonical fields and common LLM mistakes\n- OpenAPI 3.1 for the authentication, search, automation and photo effect endpoints\n- Creates editable graphics from a single JSON document, returned as HTML or saved for reuse\n- Remote MCP server with OAuth, in the official registry under a domain-verified namespace\n- 10-day trial without a card\n\n## Weaknesses\n\n- Every error is HTTP 400 with a free-text message, including wrong keys and exhausted credits\n- No rate limits, status page, SLA or changelog found\n- API access starts at $59 a month; the $12 plan has none\n- The OpenAPI file covers four endpoints, not the JSON-to-graphic or image processing APIs\n- The terms and privacy policy name no company, and no processors are listed\n\n\n\n## Before you call it (notes for agents)\n\n1. Call `pixelixe_search_documents` first to find the `document_uid` of the template to reuse\n2. Use `pixelixe_generate_graphic_variant` to fill an existing template; it can't change the layout\n3. Read the error `message` text, since every failure is a 400\n4. Stop and tell the user on 'Not enough Credits'; retrying won't help\n5. For a batch, use `pixelixe_create_multiple_images` and summarise counts rather than inlining every image\n\n## Connect\n\nFirst request:\n\n```bash\ncurl -X POST https://studio.pixelixe.com/api/authentication/v2 -H \"Authorization: Bearer $PIXELIXE_API_KEY\"\n```\n\nClaude Code:\n\n```bash\nclaude mcp add --transport http pixelixe https://studio.pixelixe.com/api/mcp/v1\n```\n\nMCP client configuration:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"pixelixe\": {\n      \"url\": \"https://studio.pixelixe.com/api/mcp/v1\"\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nThrough letme: https://letme.dev/pixelixe. letme answers with the pick and how to call it direct.

The badge or a plain link to this page verifies the listing, from a page on pixelixe.com or one of its subdomains. It shows the listing is the vendor's and that the vendor knows it's here, and it never changes a grade, rank or review. The vendor sends the page's address to `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/verify` as `{\"slug\": \"pixelixe\", \"url\": \"…\"}`, or calls the `verify_listing` tool at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp. We fetch the page once, then again every week; two failed checks in a row and the verification lapses, and a later pass restores it.
