AI Tattoo Generator

Generate custom tattoo design concepts using each::sense — the intelligent AI agent that automatically selects the best model for your request.

Quick Start

Requires an each::labs API key. Get one at eachlabs.ai.

Using curl

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Tattoo design: a geometric wolf head in dotwork style. The wolf face is composed of sacred geometry patterns — triangles, circles, and hexagons. Fine linework, black ink only, designed for forearm placement. White background, tattoo flash sheet style."
      }
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Using Python (OpenAI SDK)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_EACHLABS_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="eachsense/beta",
    messages=[{
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Tattoo design: a geometric wolf head in dotwork style. The wolf face is composed of sacred geometry patterns — triangles, circles, and hexagons. Fine linework, black ink only, designed for forearm placement. White background, tattoo flash sheet style."
    }]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

With Reference Image

Use a reference for style matching or subject inspiration:

curl -X POST https://eachsense-agent.core.eachlabs.run/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
              {"type": "text", "text": "Create a tattoo design inspired by this image. Convert it to a blackwork tattoo style with bold outlines, stipple shading, and clean negative space. White background, designed for upper arm placement."},
              {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://example.com/inspiration-photo.jpg"}}
            ]
          }
    ],
    "stream": false
  }'

Images are sent inside messages using the OpenAI multimodal content format. Maximum 4 images per request.

Streaming

Set "stream": true for real-time Server-Sent Events (SSE) responses, or "stream": false to receive the complete result in a single response. Streaming is useful for showing progress in UIs; non-streaming is simpler for scripts and automation.

Placement Considerations

Body Area	Design Shape	Considerations
Forearm	Long, vertical or wrapping	Visible, medium detail
Upper Arm	Round or broad designs	Good for detail, concealable
Wrist	Small, horizontal	Fine line works best
Back	Large, horizontal or full	Maximum detail potential
Ribs	Tall, narrow	Painful area, vertical flow
Calf	Vertical or wrapping	Good canvas, medium-large
Shoulder	Round, fits the cap shape	Great for mandalas, portraits

Prompt Structure

[Detailed description of the design].
[Color/ink specification].

Important Notes

• These designs are concept references — always work with a professional tattoo artist for the final design
• AI-generated designs may need adjustment for skin curvature and body placement
• Mention "white background" to get a clean reference sheet the artist can work from
• Specify "tattoo flash sheet style" for the most usable output format
