Ask your agent

Paste the prompt into Claude, Cursor, or another agent connected to the VectorFast Render MCP server. The JSON is the render tool call it should turn into.

Render it from code

The REST call needs an API key in Authorization: Bearer. Its response includes a signed url you can store and reuse as an og:image. The Node.js function shows the signing algorithm the server verifies; per-key signing secrets are not issued yet in early access, and the secret must stay on your server.

Invite card template FAQ

Which sizes does the invite-card template support?
1200×630, 1080×1080. The default is 1200×630; pass width and height to pick another supported size.
Which parameters are required?
headline. Every other parameter is optional and has a rendering default.
Does rendering the same parameters twice cost twice?
No. The same template version, parameters, brand kit version, format, and size produce the same cache key, so a repeat request is served from cache instead of rendering again. Billing is not connected yet in early access.
