Turn text into embedding vectors

Run job:text.embed through the looot API: 1 provider, from $0.0002 per call. Inputs, prices, output shape and code for curl, JavaScript and Python.

Turn text into embedding vectors.

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

Inputs

This job has one tool, so it takes that tool’s fields. Any key you send passes through unchanged.

Name	Type	Required	Description
`dimensions`	integer	no
`embedding_type`	string	no
`input`	unknown	yes	Text to embed: a string, `TextDoc`, or a list of items.
`input_type`	string	no
`late_chunking`	boolean	no
`model`	string	yes	The sparse embedding model to use. Example: “jina-embeddings-v3”
`normalized`	boolean	no
`return_multivector`	boolean	no
`return_tokenized_input`	boolean	no
`task`	string	no
`truncate`	boolean	no

Providers and prices

Provider	Tool	Price
Jina Reader API	`jina-embeddings`	$0.0002 per call

A call that fails at the provider costs $0. See What’s free.

Output

The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect jina-embeddings prints its fields.

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.embed","input":{"model":"jina-embeddings-v3","input":["hello world"]},"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.embed",
    input: {
      model: "jina-embeddings-v3",
      input: ["hello world"],
    },
    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.embed",
        "input": {
            "model": "jina-embeddings-v3",
            "input": ["hello world"],
        },
        "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.embed.
