What it does

The Imagga API recognises what is in a picture and returns tags, categories, colours and crop suggestions, for example to tag a photo library automatically or make images searchable. A GET request with an image URL returns JSON with tags and confidence scores in many languages. Authentication is HTTP Basic with the API key and secret. Free plan with 100 API requests per month; Imagga asks free users to show "Powered by Imagga" with a link back.
