💡When designing an image API, it’s worth going beyond just returning image URLs and the usual meta data.

Including image feature vectors in the response can significantly expand what’s possible for users and researchers. 🧵

Including image features in the JSON response lowers technical entry barriers and enables powerful applications – not just for data scientists, but also for curators, scholars, and developers working on visual interfaces.

Why does it matter?

If the API already provides features (e.g. extracted via ResNet or similar), users can directly perform t-SNE or other dimensionality reduction techniques without first downloading the images and processing them locally.
