Why did we create image over text API?

As developers and developer evangelists, we're often sharing content on social media like Twitter and Facebook, but looking to automate some of the repetitive tasks like creating social images. Image over text is an easy API to ensure all your blog posts, and far cheaper than full software suites like Cloudinary.
