Async Workflow
This model uses asynchronous execution. Submit a request and poll for the result.
- Submit — POST to /v1/run, receive an
id - Poll — GET /v1/run/{id} until status is
completed,failed, ortimeout - Retrieve — Read
outputsfrom the completed response

Sam 3 Image Embed
Sam 3 Image Embed is built for promptable segmentation and reconstruction, with this exact route focused on visual embedding extraction. Sam 3 Image Embed by Meta - advanced AI model for vision. Delivers high-quality results with fast inference, suitable for both creative and production workflows. It is designed for production workflows that need a clearly scoped media operation instead of a generic assistant response, preserving the supplied direction while returning an artifact ready for review, iteration, or downstream assembly.
The request surface keeps creative direction and delivery choices explicit through image_url, sync_mode, safety_tolerance. Teams can lock source material, describe the intended result, choose supported output controls, and rerun the same request structure across variations. This makes experiments easier to compare and larger pipelines easier to operate without hiding important decisions inside an opaque preset.
Highlights
- Visual Embedding Extraction. The
meta/sam-3/image/embedroute is dedicated to visual embedding extraction, keeping inputs and outputs matched to this operation. - Precise Spatial Selection. Within
meta/sam-3/image/embed, documented prompt and media controls direct precise spatial selection while keeping the brief close to the result. - Structured Masks Or Geometry. The
meta/sam-3/image/embedresult provides structured masks or geometry in a machine-consumable form for review and downstream production. - Route-specific control. For
meta/sam-3/image/embed, documented controls includeimage_url,sync_mode,safety_tolerance, defining the supported variation space for this exact route.

| Per request | $0.005000 |
When to Use
| Scenario | Why it fits |
|---|---|
| Choose this route | When the deliverable is specifically visual embedding extraction, not a neighboring generation or editing task. |
| Production iteration | When creative teams need repeatable precise spatial selection with an explicit request payload. |
| Automated pipelines | When structured masks or geometry must flow into review, storage, compositing, or publishing. |
| Controlled variations | When a stable brief should be rerun while changing only documented inputs. |
| Prototype to scale | When the same meta/sam-3/image/embed contract should serve a single experiment and a larger batch later. |
Prompt Guide
Lead with the subject or source, then state the transformation, important spatial or temporal details, style, and finish. Supply only documented fields, keep media URLs reachable, and vary one control at a time when comparing outputs.
