Dynamic Open Graph images as an API
Zooky is an API that generates Open Graph and Twitter-card images on the fly. It has a live playground, seven designer themes, meta-tag output, edge caching, free usage and paid API keys.
The live playground, generated preview and copy-ready meta tags, plus pricing that shows when the free image URL becomes a paid API plan.
Where they were stuck.
Teams want good social-share images without designing each one, running screenshot infrastructure or maintaining a rendering pipeline. Zooky needed a site where you can try the API before reading any docs.
How we shipped it.
- 01
Built the homepage around the basic flow. Change a few fields, watch the preview update, copy the URL and paste it into the page head.
- 02
Put the rendered preview, the live playground, copy-ready meta tags, theme choices and size options for different social platforms on the homepage.
- 03
Listed the operational details there too: edge caching, integration with zero dependencies, free usage and a paid API-key tier for heavier use.
- 04
Kept the interface sparse so the generated previews and the purple branding stand out, and kept long documentation off the main page.
