# Lootex

> Lootex is a Web3 infrastructure and AI application development company with eight years in the blockchain space. It operated a multi-chain NFT marketplace, the Lootex Studio minting tool, and the Biru social platform, and now focuses on full-stack AI/Web3 development partnerships and open-source contributions. Its core marketplace infrastructure is published as open source (Apache-2.0).

Notes for agents and integrators:
- Consumer products (Lootex Marketplace, Lootex Studio, Biru) are being sunset on 2026-04-04. Smart Account features were suspended 2025-08-27. NFTs are non-custodial and remain in users' own wallets.
- No public OpenAPI/Swagger definition is currently published. Legacy REST endpoints were documented under a Forge /v1 path; the Forge developer portal (docs.forge.lootex.dev) no longer resolves.
- Authentication: Web3 wallet-signature login issuing JWT bearer tokens (marketplace), plus per-application API keys for the Forge minting/developer API.
