Text Analyser API: Automate Content Analysis at Scale

Text Analyser API: Automate Content Analysis at Scale

What it does

  • Parse raw text and return structured outputs (tokens, sentences, paragraphs).
  • Analyze readability, grammar issues, style, sentiment, and tone.
  • Extract entities (names, places, dates), keywords, key phrases, and summaries.
  • Classify content by topic, intent, or custom labels.
  • Score texts with metrics (readability grade, sentiment score, confidence).

Typical endpoints

  • /analyze — combined analysis (readability, sentiment, keywords).
  • /entities — named-entity recognition (NER).
  • /summarize — short/long summaries.
  • /sentiment — polarity and intensity.
  • /keywords — ranked keywords and key phrases.
  • /classify — topic or custom-model classification.
  • /bulk — batch-processing for many documents.

Input & output formats

  • Accepts plain text, HTML, or JSON payloads; supports multipart upload for files.
  • Returns JSON with standardized fields: id, text, tokens, sentences, entities[], keywords[], sentiment{score,label}, readability{score,grade}, summary, confidence.

Scalability & performance

  • Supports bulk endpoints and async jobs for large datasets.
  • Pagination and streaming for long results.
  • Rate limits, concurrency controls, and configurable batch sizes to optimize throughput.
  • Caching for repeat requests and incremental analysis for edited documents.

Security & compliance

  • TLS for transport; API keys or OAuth for auth.
  • Data retention configurable; support for on-prem or VPC deployments for sensitive data.
  • Common compliance: SOC2, GDPR-readiness, and configurable PII redaction.

Integration patterns

  • Real-time: analyze user input in web apps (autocomplete, live feedback).
  • Batch: ingest content stores (CMS, data lakes) for periodic analysis.
  • Pipeline: integrate with ETL, search indexing, or moderation systems.
  • Event-driven: trigger analysis on new content via webhooks or message queues.

Pricing & limits (typical)

  • Tiered pricing: free tier with low monthly requests, pay-as-you-go per 1K requests or per token/word processed, enterprise contracts for high volume.
  • Common limits: requests/sec, max document size, monthly quota; higher tiers increase limits.

Example usage (pseudo-API request)

Code

POST /analyze Authorization: Bearer API_KEY Content-Type: application/json{ “id”: “doc-123”, “text”: “Your text to analyze…”, “features”: [“readability”,“sentiment”,“entities”,“keywords”] }

Best practices

  • Pre-clean HTML to remove boilerplate before analysis.
  • Use async/bulk for large corpora.
  • Cache results for unchanged documents.
  • Combine NER + custom entity lists for domain-specific needs.
  • Monitor model drift and retrain custom classifiers periodically.
