Pedra Python SDK

Official Python SDK for the Pedra API — AI photo editing for real estate: virtual staging, renovation, room emptying, image enhancement, sky replacement, object removal/blur, and property videos.

pip install pedra

Requires Python 3.8+. Zero runtime dependencies (uses the standard library).

Quick start

from pedra import Pedra

pedra = Pedra("YOUR_API_KEY")  # or set PEDRA_API_KEY in the environment

result = pedra.furnish(
    image_url="https://example.com/empty-living-room.jpg",
    room_type="Living room",
    style="Minimalist",
)

print(result.url)   # → the staged image URL
print(result.urls)  # → all generated URLs

Get your API key from your Pedra account settings. Every method blocks until the asset is ready and returns the final URL(s) — there are no job IDs to poll. The API uses a heartbeat to keep long requests (like create_video) alive.

Authentication

pedra = Pedra("YOUR_API_KEY")
# or
pedra = Pedra()  # reads PEDRA_API_KEY from the environment

Options:

pedra = Pedra(
    "YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://app.pedra.ai/api",  # default
    timeout=600.0,                        # seconds, default 10 min (covers create_video)
)

Responses

Image methods return an ImageResponse, which normalizes the underlying endpoint's output (some return a list, some a single object):

@dataclass
class ImageResponse:
    message: Optional[str]
    urls: List[str]   # every generated asset URL
    raw: Any          # the untouched API response
    # .url -> Optional[str]: convenience for the first URL

Methods

Examples

# Enhance — preserve exact framing (verification verticals)
pedra.enhance(image_url=url, preserve_original_framing=True)

# Empty a room
result = pedra.empty(url)

# Renovate, furnished, high creativity
pedra.renovation(url, style="Scandinavian", creativity="High", furnish=True)

# Edit via prompt
pedra.edit_via_prompt(url, "Add a large green plant in the corner")

# Sky replacement
pedra.sky(url)

# Remove an object using a mask
pedra.remove(url, mask_url)

# Blur faces / plates
pedra.blur(url, ["faces", "license_plates"])

# Credits
info = pedra.credits()
print(info.plan, info.credits_remaining)

# Feedback + credit-back on a bad result
pedra.feedback(image_url=url, vote="down", comment="Artifacts on the wall", credit_back=True)

Creating a video

create_video blocks server-side (up to ~10 minutes) while the video renders, then returns the finished URL inline. Image dicts use snake_case keys — the SDK converts them to the API's wire format for you:

video = pedra.create_video(
    images=[
        {"image_url": "https://example.com/photo1.jpg", "effect": "zoom-in", "title": "Living room"},
        {"image_url": "https://example.com/photo2.jpg", "effect": "zoom-out"},
        {
            "image_url": "https://example.com/before.jpg",
            "effect": "transition",
            "second_image_url": "https://example.com/after.jpg",
        },
    ],
    music={"enabled": True, "track": "calm"},
    branding={"show_watermark": True},
    ending_title="Contact us",
    ending_subtitle="+1 555 0100",
    is_vertical=False,
    property_characteristics=[
        {"label": "Bedrooms", "value": "3"},
        {"label": "Bathrooms", "value": "2"},
    ],
)

print(video.video_url)

Per-image effect is one of zoom-in (default), zoom-out, transition (requires second_image_url), or static. Each non-static image costs 5 credits.

Error handling

from pedra import PedraAPIError, PedraError

try:
    pedra.enhance(url)
except PedraAPIError as err:
    print(err.status, err, err.body)
except PedraError as err:
    print("Client/network error:", err)

PedraAPIError is also raised when a long request fails after the heartbeat has started — the API returns HTTP 200 with an {"error": ...} body in that case, and the SDK surfaces it as an error anyway.
