Congrats on launching. Would be good to have a quick trial on the website for a sample image, rather than going through the SDK route.

I'am also a bit shocked by this SDK approach, why not a simple API
where you upload a file, get an ID and wait till it's done?
Beside that, sometimes it works, sometimes not:
{
"request_id": "9622a21f-37bf-4404-ac84-8728977a5272",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null,
"models": [
{
"name": "rd-context-img",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
},
{
"name": "rd-pine-img",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
},
{
"name": "rd-oak-img",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
},
{
"name": "rd-elm-img",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
},
{
"name": "rd-img-ensemble",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
},
{
"name": "rd-cedar-img",
"status": "ANALYZING",
"score": null
}
]
}

I figure the VirusTotal approach would be bad in this case, as it'd be a vector for bad actors to test AI-generated images to see if they pass or not.
