OpenAI-Compatible APIs
OpenAI-Compatible API Wrappers¶
MTEB provides wrappers for connecting to any OpenAI-compatible API server via HTTP for embedding, reranking, and ColBERT-style multi-vector retrieval tasks. These wrappers work with:
- vLLM servers
- OpenAI APIs
- Any other server implementing the OpenAI-compatible
/v1/embeddingsor/v1/rerankendpoints
This is useful for:
- Benchmarking remote or production API servers
- Reusing running server instances across multiple benchmark runs
- Avoiding repeated model loading overhead
- Using hosted embedding and reranking APIs
CLI support
The MTEB CLI does not currently support OpenAI-compatible API wrappers. Use the Python API directly as shown in the examples below.
Usage¶
Note
For vLLM, start a server with:
- Embedding:
vllm serve <model-name> --runner pooling --port 8000 - Reranking:
vllm serve <reranker-model> --runner pooling --port 8001 - Token-level (ColBERT-style):
vllm serve <model-name> --runner pooling --pooler-config.task token_embed --port 8002
import mteb
from mteb.models import OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper
# Connect to a vLLM server
encoder = OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper(
endpoint_url="http://localhost:8000",
model_name="BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5",
)
# Or use OpenAI's API
encoder = OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper(
endpoint_url="https://api.openai.com/v1",
model_name="text-embedding-3-small",
api_key="sk-...",
)
# Evaluate on MTEB tasks
results = mteb.evaluate(
encoder,
mteb.get_task("STS12"),
)
print(results)
import mteb
from mteb.models import OpenAIAPIRerankWrapper
# Connect to a vLLM reranking server
reranker = OpenAIAPIRerankWrapper(
endpoint_url="http://localhost:8001",
model_name="BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3",
)
# Evaluate on MTEB reranking tasks
results = mteb.evaluate(
reranker,
mteb.get_task("AskUbuntuDupQuestions"),
)
print(results)
import mteb
from mteb.models import OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper
# Connect to a vLLM server serving a late-interaction (ColBERT-style)
# model. Unlike the two wrappers above, this returns a per-token
# multi-vector embedding for each input instead of one fixed-size
# vector, and scores retrieval candidates with MaxSim rather than
# cosine/dot similarity.
model = OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper(
endpoint_url="http://localhost:8002",
model_name="BAAI/bge-m3",
modalities=["text"],
# BAAI/bge-m3 has no chat template, so pure-text requests must use
# the plain `input` field rather than `messages` (see "Multimodal
# inputs" below).
use_chat_template=False,
)
# Evaluate on an MTEB retrieval task
results = mteb.evaluate(
model,
mteb.get_task("NanoSciFactRetrieval"),
)
print(results)
Multimodal inputs¶
All three wrappers accept image, audio, and video content alongside text, by sending it to vLLM's Chat Embeddings/Pooling APIs (a messages field, following the vLLM pooling examples) or, for reranking, as {"content": [...]} blocks on /v1/rerank. This requires a vLLM server started with a model that actually supports that modality — for example:
# Multimodal embeddings
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-Embedding-2B --runner pooling --max-model-len 8192
# Multimodal reranking (image + video)
vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-Reranker-2B --runner pooling --max-model-len 4096 \
--hf_overrides '{"architectures": ["Qwen3VLForSequenceClassification"],"classifier_from_token": ["no", "yes"],"is_original_qwen3_reranker": true}' \
--chat-template examples/pooling/score/template/qwen3_vl_reranker.jinja
# Multimodal ColBERT-style (image + text)
vllm serve TomoroAI/tomoro-colqwen3-embed-4b --max-model-len 4096
import mteb
from mteb.models import OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper
encoder = OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper(
endpoint_url="http://localhost:8000",
model_name="Qwen/Qwen3-VL-Embedding-2B",
modalities=["text", "image"],
)
results = mteb.evaluate(
encoder,
mteb.get_task("VisRAGRetArxivQA"),
)
print(results)
OpenAIAPIRerankWrapper supports image and video, but not audio: vLLM's rerank/score content-part schema has no audio variant. OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper and OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper support all four modalities (text, image, audio, video). Video is re-encoded from decoded frames via torchcodec (pip install mteb[video]); resampling video/audio uses mteb.models.modality_collators.VideoCollator/AudioCollator, and can be tuned via fps, max_frames, num_frames, target_sampling_rate, and max_samples constructor arguments.
use_chat_template
Image/audio/video content is always sent via messages, which vLLM renders through the model's chat template. Non-chat text-encoder models — e.g. BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5, BAAI/bge-m3 — don't define one and will reject messages requests with a 400 error ("...default chat template is no longer allowed...").
OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapperdefaults touse_chat_template=True(every request, including pure text, goes throughmessages), since it's vLLM-only.OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapperalso defaults touse_chat_template=True, but is commonly pointed at the real OpenAI API or non-chat vLLM models — neither supportsmessagesfor embeddings — so setuse_chat_template=Falsefor those; pure-text requests then use the plaininputfield instead.OpenAIAPIRerankWrapperhas no such flag: text-only rerank/score requests never usemessagesin the first place (they use thequery/documentsstring fields), so this only matters for the two wrappers above.
Live testing scripts¶
scripts/serve_vllm_models.sh and scripts/test_openai_wrappers_live.py in the MTEB repository are ready-to-run companions covering all three wrappers, text-only and multimodal, against real small MTEB tasks:
# terminal 1: start a server for one scenario
scripts/serve_vllm_models.sh text-token-embed
# terminal 2: run the matching scenario
python scripts/test_openai_wrappers_live.py text-token-embed
Run scripts/serve_vllm_models.sh --help for the full list of scenarios (text-embed, multimodal-embed, text-rerank, multimodal-rerank, text-token-embed, multimodal-token-embed).
API Reference¶
mteb.models.openai_wrappers.OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper
¶
Bases: OpenAIBaseWrapper, AbsEncoder
OpenAI-compatible API wrapper for MTEB embedding benchmarks.
This wrapper communicates with embedding models served via OpenAI-compatible
HTTP APIs using the /v1/embeddings endpoint. When a batch contains image,
audio, or video content, it switches to vLLM's Chat Embeddings API (a
messages field on the same endpoint) to embed that content together with
text, following https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/examples/pooling/embed/.
This requires a vLLM server started with a multimodal pooling model and,
for some models, a matching --chat-template (see vLLM's
vision_embedding_online.py example for per-model server flags). Audio is
sent as WAV, video as MP4 (re-encoded from decoded frames via
torchcodec).
messages is rendered through the model's chat template, so — like
OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper — it only works with chat-template-capable
(typically VLM-based) models; non-chat text encoders reject it with a 400
("...default chat template is no longer allowed..."). By default
(use_chat_template=True), all batches, including pure text, are sent
through messages. Note that messages is a vLLM-only extension — the
real OpenAI API and other OpenAI-compatible servers don't support it for
embeddings at all — and non-chat text-encoder vLLM models (e.g.
BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5 without a chat template) will reject it; set
use_chat_template=False for those, which sends pure-text batches via
the plain input field instead (image/audio/video content still
requires messages and a chat-capable model regardless of this flag).

mteb.models.openai_wrappers.OpenAIAPIRerankWrapper
¶
Bases: OpenAIBaseWrapper
OpenAI-compatible API wrapper for MTEB reranking benchmarks.
This wrapper communicates with reranking models served via OpenAI-compatible
HTTP APIs using the /v1/rerank endpoint. Queries or documents that carry
an image or video are sent as {"content": [...]} blocks containing
image_url/video_url/text parts, matching the multimodal rerank
request shape documented in
https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/examples/pooling/score/ (e.g.
vision_rerank_api_online.py). This requires a vLLM server started with a
vision-language pooling/reranker model. Audio is not supported here:
vLLM's rerank/score content-part schema (ScoreContentPartParam) has no
audio variant, unlike the Chat Embeddings/Pooling APIs used by
OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper/OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper.

mteb.models.openai_wrappers.OpenAIAPITokenEmbedWrapper
¶
Bases: OpenAIBaseWrapper
OpenAI-compatible API wrapper for ColBERT-style multi-vector retrieval models.
Served via vLLM's Pooling API using late (token) interaction.
Unlike OpenAIAPIEncodeWrapper, which returns a single fixed-size vector
per input, this wrapper requests per-token embeddings (shape
(num_tokens, dim)) from vLLM's /pooling endpoint, following
https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/examples/pooling/token_embed/. It
implements SearchProtocol directly: index() encodes and keeps the
corpus' multi-vector embeddings in memory, and search() scores queries
against them (or against top_ranked candidates, for reranking tasks)
via brute-force MaxSim (late interaction) — no ANN index or extra
dependency (e.g. PyLate) is used, so this scales linearly with corpus
size rather than using an approximate index.
The server must be started with a pooling model whose pooler task is
token_embed, e.g. for a text-only ColBERT model:
vllm serve BAAI/bge-m3 --pooler-config.task token_embed
or, for a multimodal (image + text) late interaction model:
vllm serve TomoroAI/tomoro-colqwen3-embed-4b --max-model-len 4096
Image, audio, and video items are sent one request at a time via the Chat
Pooling API (a messages field on /pooling), following
colqwen3_token_embed_online.py; unlike /v1/embeddings, vLLM's
/pooling endpoint does not support batching multiple chat conversations
into a single request. messages is rendered through the model's chat
template, so it only works with chat-template-capable (typically
VLM-based) pooling models — non-chat text encoders like BAAI/bge-m3
reject it with a 400 ("...default chat template is no longer
allowed..."). By default (use_chat_template=True) all items, including
pure text, are sent through messages; set use_chat_template=False for
text-only models without a chat template, which instead batches text via
the plain input field (image/audio/video items still require
messages and a chat-capable model regardless of this flag). Audio is
sent as WAV, video as MP4 (re-encoded from decoded frames; requires the
av package).
