This looks great!

How would I use this as part of an asset pipeline? If I'm running it as part of an automated process, I'd love to see prices that support that model, as well as caching so that doing the same image multiple times doesn't increase my bill. Any thoughts?

You could integrate this, but you don't want to send every single asset to them on every deploy, only the changed ones. You should just keep a manifest file of all krakenified images, and only push them up when you add/alter one.
Well, there's where the problem is. I want to do a clean build on each deploy, and there will be many devs on many machines building it, so handling it locally isn't really possible. We could handle it by having a DB keep track, but that's not broadly applicable.

I bring this up because kraken is competing with free programs I already have installed. This is something I can do with those programs that I can't with kraken.
