Challenge

Production OpenAI requires managing APIs, caching, error handling, rate limits, and retry logic—building custom wrappers and orchestration code.

Solution

Pixeltable provides native OpenAI integration with automatic API management, caching, error handling, and multimodal processing. Define AI workflows declaratively.

Integration Steps

Step 1 of 5

Configure OpenAI API and create AI-powered tables

import pixeltable as pxt
from pixeltable.functions import openai
import os


# Set up OpenAI API key (recommended: use environment variable)
os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] = 'your-api-key-here'


# Create table for multimodal content
content = pxt.create_table('ai_content', {
    'text': pxt.String,
    'image': pxt.Image,
    'title': pxt.String
})


# Insert sample data
content.insert([
    {
        'text': 'Analyze this product image for marketing insights',
        'image': '/path/to/product.jpg',
        'title': 'Product Analysis'
    }
])
