Zaps for agents
Turn someone's photos into finished social-media designs (stories, carousels, reel covers, invites) from any AI agent. Give it photos and a brief, and Zaps picks matching templates, places the photos and the words, and returns finished images with a link to keep editing each one in the Zaps editor.
- No key, no signup to start. Searching and the first design are free with no account.
- Signing in is a browser click. When a call needs an account, your client opens a Zaps sign-in page (OAuth). After that it stays signed in.
- One hosted server:
https://api.zaps.design/mcp(MCP, Streamable HTTP).

No install at all? One GET makes a design:

In a browser, https://api.zaps.design/make is a form that takes photo files.
