The Gloo AI API gives you flexible access to the whole Gloo AI platform. To help you get started, the guides are grouped into two categories, based on what you want to build.

Content & Data APIs

For populating our Data Engine and making your content discoverable.

Conversational AI APIs

For building intelligent chatbots, assistants, and other AI-powered applications.

​
Content & Data APIs

These APIs are for content owners, publishers, and data administrators. Use them to populate the Gloo AI platform with your unique data and make it available for semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

Upload Content

Upload text content directly for immediate processing and vectorization. Ideal for dynamic content.

Search API

Query your ingested content using our AI-based, near-text, semantic search capabilities.

Manage Content

APIs for managing the lifecycle of ingested content and data in the Gloo AI platform.

​
Conversational AI APIs

These APIs are for developers building interactive AI experiences. Use them to send prompts to language models and build chat assistants and multi-turn conversations. Not sure which endpoint to use? See Endpoint types to compare guarded, direct, and grounded endpoints. Direct endpoints add no platform fee: you pay the model’s published rate (see the Models page and GET /platform/v2/models). Guarded endpoints add a 6.5% platform fee for guardrails, moderation, and values alignment, and so does Grounded Completions, which runs on the guarded pipeline. Grounded Responses bills the model’s published rate with no separate charge for retrieval. See Pricing at a glance.

Responses API

The recommended endpoint for new integrations. OpenAI-compatible, multimodal (vision + image generation), with typed structured output.

Completions API (V2)

Fully supported and backwards-compatible. Choose a model, a model family, or auto-routing, with values-aligned responses.

Tool Use

Let the model call your own functions and tools on the Responses API and Completions V2.

​
Embeddings API

Use the Embeddings API when you manage your own vector store and want to create vectors with Gloo embedding models.

Embeddings

Create text embeddings with a model from the Gloo catalog using the OpenAI-compatible request shape.

Core Concepts

Before you begin, we recommend reviewing these essential guides that apply to all API interactions.

Authentication

Learn how to generate the API keys and bearer tokens required to make authenticated requests.
