// CHANGELOG
Every update, improvement, and fix — in order. We ship fast and we keep you in the loop.
Phlegethon v1.5 introduces a complete image editing suite, 11 AI-powered style transformations, and outfit preset styles. Edit, enhance, and transform your images before forging for better results.
Photo Enhancement (Standard & Advanced) — Sharpen, upscale, and restore photos with AI. Standard (2cr) or Advanced deep restoration (4cr). Marked as POPULAR.
Watermark Removal — Intelligently removes watermarks, logos, and text overlays (2 credits).
Background Removal — Clean transparent PNG extraction with precise edges (0.5 credits).
Face Cutout — Precise face and head extraction for compositing (1 credit).
Old Photo Restoration — Restore faded, scratched, and damaged photos (2 credits).
Generate Background — Replace transparent backgrounds with AI-generated scenes (3 credits).
ID Photo (Standard & Advanced) — Passport-style photos with solid backgrounds. Standard (1cr) or Advanced professional alignment (6cr). Consolidated into single card with mode toggle.
Photo Colorization — Automatically colorize black-and-white photos with realistic colors (1 credit).
Image Expansion — Extend canvas by outpainting new content around edges (5 credits).
Image Compression — Reduce file size while preserving visual quality (1 credit).
Gen AI Styles — 11 AI-powered transformations: Custom Editor, Nude, Lace Lingerie, Bikini, Micro Bikini, Bunny Suit, School Swimsuit, Shibari, Tattoo, Stockings, Piercing (3–5 credits each).
Style Presets — 9 preset outfit transformations within Gen AI for quick style changes (3–5 credits).
Workflow tip banners on Utilities and Gen AI pages remind users to edit first, then forge — editing after forging breaks the bypass engine.
Hint tooltips now use blue color (#3B82F6) with circled ! icon for better visual distinction.
Tool icon boxes retain square shape in expanded tool panels (fixed flex collapse issue).
Phlegethon is now open to developers. The same multi-layer forge pipeline that powers phlegethon.icu is available as a REST API — so you can integrate AI detection bypass into any platform, workflow, or product.
Public REST API at /api/v1/ — submit images, poll job status, and check credits programmatically.
API key management in Settings — generate, copy, and revoke keys with one click.
Full pipeline control via API: intensity (light/normal/aggressive/max), cameraMode, doublePass, deviceProfile — every option the web UI has, now in code.
Interactive API documentation at /docs — with live cURL, JavaScript, and Python examples.
Rate limiting (60 req/min per key) and per-key usage logging built in.
API uses your existing account credits — no separate billing or pricing tier required.
Supports white-label integrations, platform embeds, and batch automation workflows.
This is our biggest update since launch. We've made it easier and cheaper to get credits — and now you can get some for free every single week.
You can now pay with a credit or debit card — the card form opens right inside the app, no redirects.
Free credits every week, automatically. Light users can keep forging without ever spending a cent.
No more fixed credit packs. Buy exactly the number of credits you want, at a lower price per image than before.
Your credit history is now visible in Settings — see every transaction at a glance.
Double Pass — run the bypass pipeline twice for deeper stealth. Works on any mode, free, and great for squeezing out a better score without switching to a heavier mode.
We polished the payment experience and gave the image results page a proper redesign.
After a successful payment, a satisfying animation shows your credits filling up.
Image results page redesigned: original and forged images are now shown side by side on desktop, stacked on mobile.
Fixed a rare issue where credits could be deducted twice in a batch forge session.
Phlegethon is now free for light users — no card, no commitment. Your free credits reset every week.
Weekly free credits reset automatically every Sunday — just log in and forge.
Free credits are always used first, so your paid balance stays intact until you really need it.
You can now type in any credit amount on the top-up page instead of choosing from fixed packs.
A round of UX improvements and a better way to report results that didn't go as expected.
The homepage and onboarding copy has been rewritten to be clearer and more welcoming.
When reporting a failed result, you can now attach a screenshot so we can investigate faster.
More control over how your images are processed, plus a few quality-of-life additions.
Four forge intensity levels: Light, Normal, Aggressive, and Max — choose based on how strict your target platform is.
If a lighter mode doesn't pass, you'll be offered a free retry at a stronger setting.
Promo codes — redeem codes in Settings for free credits.
Download multiple forged images at once as a ZIP file.
The forge layout on desktop now shows your image and controls side by side.

A second crypto payment option added for more flexibility.
