Gortex

Ranking API for consumer platforms

Free383 impressions#33 this week

Gortex is a decisioning API that sits between candidate generation and the surface your users see. Send it a recipient, a surface and a candidate set, and a single call to POST /v1/decide returns the organically ranked order with monetized slots already filled, in under 200ms p99, with a trace ID on every decision. Built for feeds, marketplaces, creator platforms, dating apps and job boards rather than product catalogs.

Gortex FAQ

What is decisioning infrastructure?+

It is the layer between candidate generation and the user-visible surface that decides item order and sponsored slot placement, recording the why behind each decision.

What does the Gortex API do?+

A single POST /v1/decide call takes a recipient, surface and candidate set and returns an organically ranked order plus filled sponsored slots in sub-200 ms.

What is the difference between ranking and retrieval?+

Retrieval gathers the candidate set; ranking orders those candidates and decides which slots are monetized, which Gortex handles in one step.

How does Gortex rank organic results and fill sponsored slots in one call?+

It first ranks candidates by relevance, then resolves sponsored slots against that ranking so paid items occupy only fitting positions, returning both in the same response.

What platforms is Gortex for?+

Consumer platforms with ranking surfaces such as social feeds, marketplaces, creator/discovery products, dating apps and ecommerce, handling profiles, posts, locations, products or brands.
