Run job:text.analyze through the looot API: 1 provider, from $0.001 per call. Inputs, prices, output shape and code for curl, JavaScript and Python.

Summarize a text and find its topics.

Job id text.analyze, in Generative AI (Utilities). As of 2026-10-01, 1 provider serve it through 1 tool. Run job:text.analyze and looot picks one of them; with fallback on, a miss moves on to the next. See Jobs.

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:

{ results: { summary: { text }, sentiments: { average: { ... }, segments: { ... }[] } }, metadata: { created, language, request_id, summary_info: { model_uuid, input_tokens, output_tokens }, sentiment_info: { model_uuid, input_tokens, output_tokens } } }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"job:text.analyze","input":{"tag":"<tag>"},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "job:text.analyze",
    input: {
      tag: "<tag>",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);

import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "job:text.analyze",
        "input": {
            "tag": "<tag>",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To pin one provider, send its tool id as endpointId instead of job:text.analyze.
