OpenAI ships this model for turning text into vectors; on uttapen it is "openai/
The dimensions parameter shortens the vector, trading a little recall for less storage and faster search. It is multilingual, which matters for Persian text; still, measure it on a few dozen real questions against your own documents before committing.
Only input tokens are billed. Indexing a thousand 500-token documents (500k tokens) costs about 3,462.19 toman here; the vectors are built once and afterwards only queries cost anything. For an alternative at a similar price, look at Titan Text Embeddings V2 from Amazon.
text-embedding-3-small is OpenAI's improved, more performant version of the ada embedding model. Embeddings are a numerical representation of text that can be used to measure the relatedness between two pieces...

Frequently asked
- How do I get vectors from Text Embedding 3 Small?
- Create an API key, point the official OpenAI SDK's base_url at https:/
/ api.uttapen.ir/ v1 and call client.embeddings.create with model "openai/ text-embedding-3-small" and an input string or list of strings. Each input comes back as one vector in data. - What does Text Embedding 3 Small cost in toman?
- 6,924 toman per 1M input tokens, and output is free. You pay for the input tokens the request reported; a failed request costs nothing.
- Can I use Text Embedding 3 Small for chat?
- No. An embedding model writes no text, so chat/
completions with it returns 400. For RAG, build the vectors here and let a chat model write the answer.
