Gathos — AI Image, TTS, and Video APIs for Agents
Gathos is an API platform for AI agents. It ships three
creative REST APIs: image generation with pixel-perfect long-text
rendering, text-to-speech with zero-shot voice cloning across 600+
languages, and Creator text-to-video with generated audio. Pro is
$18 per month; Creator adds video at $45
per month.
What is Gathos?
Gathos replaces the common stack of Nano Banana Pro + ElevenLabs +
Midjourney, and Creator reduces the need to stitch separate Veo 3 or
Seedance-style video workflows onto that stack. It is designed
for shell-capable AI agents including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf,
Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, Aider, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT Custom GPTs, and
Continue. The image API renders readable long paragraphs, headlines,
and UI labels inside generated images — the exact thing that
competing models (Nano Banana Pro, Midjourney, DALL·E, ChatGPT
image) consistently garble. The TTS API clones any voice from a
5–30 second reference sample, zero-shot, and synthesizes speech in
more than 600 languages and accents.
Pricing
Pro plan: $18 / month for image and TTS APIs.
Creator plan: $45 / month and adds text-to-video
with generated audio. No per-image fees or per-character metering.
Cancel anytime. Free trial: 7 days with up to 20
calls per day across the creative APIs (140 calls total), the same
6-hour burst window and concurrency limits as the paid plan. No
credit card required. Competitor benchmarks (current as of April
2026): Nano Banana Pro via Gemini API is $0.134/image at 1K–2K
resolution and $0.24/image at 4K, so 1,000 images costs $134–$240.
ElevenLabs TTS with voice cloning runs $5–$990 per month depending
on character volume and tier. Midjourney is $10–$120/month with
image quotas. Gathos at $18 flat saves a typical mid-volume team
$150–$1,500 per month.

Frequently asked questions
- Which agents does Gathos work with?
- Any shell-capable AI agent, including Claude Code, Cursor,
Windsurf, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, Aider, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT
Custom GPTs, and Continue.
- Is the image generator actually better at text?
- Yes. Gathos renders long paragraphs and multi-line headlines
with correct typography inside images. Nano Banana Pro, Midjourney,
and ChatGPT image consistently garble text past a short headline.
- How does the trial work?
- 7 days, 20 calls per day combined across image and TTS, capped
at 140 total. Same 6-hour window and concurrency as the paid plan.
No credit card required.
