Catalog preview for SAM 3 Image. Review your own result before publishing.
A starting point.
Select an object or region in an image to produce segmentation masks. Use a text description, points or boxes to guide the selection; this is not a new-scene generator.
Before you publish.
Compare each mask with the source at the edges and around overlapping objects. A confidence score is a selection aid, not proof that every pixel is correct.
Review the quote before running. A failed generation releases its reserved credits. Download the results you want to keep; stored media is retained for 30 days.
Settings and model questionsCheck the available settings and guidance when preparing your input.
Inputs and settings
Provide image_url, then choose prompt, point_prompts or box_prompts for your selection. Check the full schema for coordinate and grouping rules.
Use include_scores or include_boxes when you need that metadata, and return_multiple_masks when you need separate candidate masks.

Use SAM 3 Image through the API.
Start with this model ID for the endpoint featured on this page:
sam-3/image
Input requirements belong to this model ID. Check a different mode’s schema separately when switching modes.
Check the current model schema for supported inputs and options. Other tasks may use different model IDs.
From quote to result.
Request a credit quote for your input and settings before submitting a generation. A sample output or the price of another model is not a quote for your request.
Follow the generation workflow, then poll the job for its status and result. The API and studio use the same balance.
