DeepAI Make integrationAutomate DeepAI with Make.

Need images made from text, without opening DeepAI each time? The DeepAI Make integration gives you 3 action modules: one that draws an image from a prompt, one that edits an image, and a raw API call. This page walks you through the connection and a first working scenario.

What you can automate

What can the DeepAI Make integration do for you?

The DeepAI Make integration lets Make send prompts and pictures to DeepAI and pass the result to your other apps. You build a scenario, which is the automation itself, out of modules, the small bricks that each do one job. DeepAI only brings actions, so another app or a schedule starts the chain.

Visuals for every new blog draft. A new entry in your editorial tool hands its title to Generate an Image from Text, and the picture lands next to the draft before anyone asks a designer.

Retouching as part of a pipeline. When a product photo reaches your store or your shared drive, Edit an Image reworks it, and the next module stores the new version where your team expects it.

Anything the listed modules skip. Make an API Call reuses your DeepAI connection to reach any endpoint of the DeepAI API, so you are not stuck with the two ready-made actions.

Know the limit up front: Make says its documentation for DeepAI is incomplete, because little public information exists about the app. Expect to test each module with real data. DeepAI has no trigger either, so the start always comes from elsewhere. If that sounds like a lot to set up alone, the Make training covers the basics, and the Make pricing page explains how operations are counted. Many apps you use in Make also have an n8n node, so check whether DeepAI does; the n8n vs Make comparison lays out both options.

Connect

How do you connect DeepAI to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a DeepAI module

    In your scenario, click the +, search for DeepAI and pick any of its modules. In the module panel, click Create a connection. A connection is your DeepAI account linked to Make once, then reused by every DeepAI module.

  2. 02

    Name the connection

    Give the connection a name you will recognize later, such as the account or team it belongs to. This step is optional, but it helps as soon as you link more than one DeepAI account or share scenarios with teammates.

  3. 03

    Authorize and save

    Follow what DeepAI asks for: either approve Make on the DeepAI page that opens, or paste the key DeepAI gives you. Then click Save. The module can now talk to your DeepAI account.

First scenario

Your first scenario with DeepAI

GoalWhen a new idea lands in another app, Make asks DeepAI for a matching image, then edits it.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Choose the app where your ideas arrive, a form or a sheet for instance, and add its trigger.

  2. 02

    Add Generate an Image from Text

    Click the + on the right of the first module, search DeepAI and pick Generate an Image from Text. Create the connection, then map the text from the first module into the prompt.

  3. 03

    Chain Edit an Image

    Add Edit an Image after it and map the image produced by the previous module. Each item passing between modules is a bundle: here, one idea and then one picture.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once and create a test entry in your first app. Open the bubble above each module to read the bundles it received and check that the image came back.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    On the first module, open the clock to set the schedule; a new scenario checks every 15 minutes by default. Then switch the scenario on so it runs without you.

Modules

What DeepAI can do in Make

DeepAI gives you 3 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

DeepAI1

Edit an Image

Action

In MakeEdits an image.

Edit an Image hands a picture to DeepAI and gets back a reworked version you can pass to the next module, so retouching becomes a step of the flow, not a chore.

When to use it
a product photo or a generated visual already exists and you want DeepAI to change it before it is stored or published.
Watch out
Make's documentation for DeepAI is thin and says nothing about this module’s fields, so run it once on a sample image and read the returned bundle first.
DeepAI2

Generate an Image from Text

Action

In MakeGenerates an image from a text prompt.

You write a prompt, or map one from an earlier module, and DeepAI returns a brand new picture that the rest of the scenario can use right away.

When to use it
you start from words, like an article title or a product name, and have no image yet; pick Edit an Image instead when a picture already exists.
Watch out
each call is one operation on your Make plan, so a scenario that feeds many rows through it spends operations quickly.
DeepAI3

Make an API Call

Action

In MakePerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.

This module opens the full DeepAI API from your scenario, reusing the connection you already created, so you can reach features the two ready-made modules do not cover.

When to use it
you need a DeepAI endpoint that has no module of its own in Make.
Watch out
you write the request yourself and Make's documentation of DeepAI is limited, so rely on DeepAI's own API reference and test with Run once first.

FAQ

Questions about DeepAI and Make

01Is the DeepAI Make integration free?
Yes, on the Make side. DeepAI is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, runs of 5 minutes at most, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams, Enterprise) bring the interval down to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and count usage as credits, or operations, per month. What DeepAI itself charges is not covered here.
02What do you need to connect DeepAI to Make?
A DeepAI account and a Make account. Make does not list any prerequisite for DeepAI and publishes no dedicated connection steps, so the generic path applies: add a DeepAI module, click Create a connection, optionally name it, then either authorize Make on the DeepAI page or paste the key DeepAI gives you, and click Save. Once saved, the same connection then serves all 3 DeepAI modules in every scenario you build.
03Does DeepAI trigger Make scenarios in real time?
No, because DeepAI has no trigger module in Make; all 3 of its modules are actions. The scenario has to start somewhere else. Either put a trigger from another app first, such as a new form answer, and let DeepAI act on it, or rely on the schedule of the first module, set to every 15 minutes by default. If the starting app offers an instant trigger, meaning it calls Make through a webhook as soon as something happens, DeepAI will react right after that event.
04What if a DeepAI module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It reuses your DeepAI connection and can call any endpoint of the DeepAI API, so features without a dedicated module are still within reach. Keep in mind that Make's documentation of DeepAI is limited for lack of public information, which means you should read DeepAI's own API reference, build the request carefully and test it with Run once before switching the scenario on for good.
05Should you use Make or n8n for DeepAI?
It depends on the tool you already work in. In Make, DeepAI offers 3 action modules, image generation from text, image editing and a raw API call, and it is available from the Free plan. Many apps also have an n8n node, so check first whether DeepAI has one there. If your other automations already run in one of the two tools, keeping DeepAI there saves you from maintaining two setups. The n8n vs Make comparison linked above goes through the other criteria.
