Available tools 20

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

replace
replace_lawn
Turn patchy, brown or bare grass in an exterior listing photo into a healthy green lawn, leaving driveways, paths, beds and the house untouched. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
replace_sky
Replace a grey, overcast or blown-out sky in an exterior listing photo with a natural clear blue sky, matching the light and keeping the building, trees and reflections unchanged. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
upload
create_upload_ticket
Get a presigned upload URL for a LOCAL image file — the one case a URL can't cover. PUT the file to uploadUrl with the same Content-Type, then pass the returned r2Path to a generation tool instead of imageUrl. Ticket expires in 1 hour.
upload_image_from_url
Rarely needed: generation tools take an imageUrl directly. Use this only to import a photo into Pixly ahead of time, e.g. to reuse one URL across several tools without refetching it each time.
before
before_after_reel
Animate a before→after transformation (e.g. empty room → staged) into a social-ready reveal video from two frames. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
cinematic
cinematic_motion
Turn a single listing photo into a short cinematic clip with a professional camera move (zoom, orbit, fly-through, crane up…). No second frame needed. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
credit
get_credit_balance
The user's current Pixly credit balance and plan.
day
day_to_night
Turn a daytime listing photo into a magazine-style night scene — lights on, warm glow, dusk sky — with the building and camera angle unchanged. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
declutter
declutter_photo
Remove clutter, mess, and personal items from a listing photo while keeping the room, furniture, and architecture intact. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
edit
edit_staged_photo
Apply a specific change to a previously staged photo (swap the sofa, add a rug) while preserving everything else. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
enhance
enhance_photo
Turn an amateur listing photo into a finished, professional real-estate photo (exposure, color, clarity). Returns 3 variants to pick from. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
furniture
remove_furniture
Empty a room completely — remove all furniture, rugs, art, plants and decor, and rebuild the floor and walls behind them, keeping the architecture and camera angle identical. The blank canvas for restaging. (Declutter is the opposite: it keeps the furniture.) Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
job
get_job
Check a generation job's status and fetch result URLs when it's done. Video jobs take 1-5 minutes — poll this with a few seconds between calls.
library
list_library
List the user's recent generations, or with type "uploads" their own uploaded source photos, newest first. Uploads are the way in when the photo is a local file: connectors cannot send bytes, so the user adds it at https://pixly.app/app and you pick up the r2Path here.
plot
plot_sign
Place a photorealistic 3D monument sign with your exact text (price, area, SOLD) onto a photo of an empty plot, matched to perspective and lighting. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
reset
reset_season
Photograph the same property in another season: take the snow off the ground, the roof and the branches and put the garden in leaf, or move a summer shot to autumn or winter. The house, the driveway, the paths and the camera angle stay exactly as shot. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
restyle
restyle_room
Give one or more surfaces of a room a new finish — repaint the walls, change the floor, reface the kitchen cabinets and worktop, retile the bathroom or refinish the furniture — while the room's layout, fittings, windows and camera angle stay exactly as shot. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
touch
touch_up_exterior
One-click retouch of an exterior listing photo: a natural sky where it is dull, a healthy lawn where the grass is dead, a clean driveway, and bins, hoses and other clutter removed — each only where needed, with the house unchanged. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
upscale
upscale_hd
Enlarge a photo by up to four times with real detail, to a maximum of 4096 px on the long edge — for print, MLS uploads and large screens. Nothing in the photo changes. Free on any result Pixly made (pass its r2Path from list_library); 1 credit on your own photo. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.
virtual
virtual_staging
Furnish and style an empty (or badly furnished) room photo in a chosen interior style. The flagship tool. HD, watermark-free results. Costs credits from the user's Pixly balance.

Pixly — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Pixly do?
It exposes 20 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: before_after_reel, cinematic_motion, create_upload_ticket, day_to_night, declutter_photo, edit_staged_photo and 14 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is Pixly mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around upload and replace. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Pixly working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 93 of 93 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 199 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Pixly?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Pixly need an API key?
No. Pixly completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 20 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Pixly?
It answers our handshake in 199 ms on average, which is faster than 67% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
