HTML to Text API is a web-based service designed to extract plain text from HTML content. It removes all HTML tags, scripts, styles, and formatting, ensuring that only the readable text remains. This functionality is useful for scenarios where clean, unformatted text is required, such as for indexing, analysis, or processing of web content.
The API operates through a simple authenticated GET request, requiring no SDK for integration. Each request processes the specified HTML source, aggregates data from multiple upstream sources, and returns a structured JSON object. The response includes the extracted text, word and character counts, and detected language with a confidence score. The service is designed for fast processing, even with large documents, and aims to preserve the structure of readable text while stripping away non-essential elements.
HTML to Text API offers a free tier that does not require a credit card, and advertises response times of less than 200 milliseconds along with a 99.9% uptime service level agreement. The product is positioned for developers who need to convert HTML to plain text efficiently and reliably, and integrates with various tools as part of its workflow.
