09 / FAQ

Things teams ask.

Q.01Why pay more for Ideogram?
Because if your image is going to carry copy that has to read correctly — a poster, an ad, a logo lockup, a magazine cover — Ideogram is the only model in the catalog that's purpose-built for that. The $0.02 markup over FLUX is cheap insurance against typography failures.
Q.02Can it do non-text imagery?
Yes, but it's not its strongest mode. For pure photoreal or illustration without text, FLUX 1.1 [pro] or Imagen 4 are better picks at lower cost.
Q.03What font styles does it support?
It generates type rather than picking from a font library — so the answer is 'most things you can describe.' Use specific descriptors ('condensed serif', 'humanist sans', 'rounded geometric') rather than font names.
Q.04Does it handle non-Latin scripts?
Yes — Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, CJK all render legibly. For dense CJK layouts at scale, Seedream 4.0 is competitive at lower cost.
Q.05Can I use the outputs commercially?
Yes. Infer passes through Ideogram's commercial terms.
Q.06What are the rate limits?
Default tier is 60 requests per minute, with burst capacity to 120/min. Paid tiers scale to 1,000+ rpm.
Q.07How is this different from calling Ideogram directly?
One key, one bill, one SDK shape across 60+ models. Infer handles auth, retries, region routing, and per-model quirks — no separate Ideogram account needed.
