GetTxt.AI — The Swiss Army Knife of Text Extraction and AI Documentation Processing
GetTxt.AI is a versatile text extraction and processing platform offering a single API call to extract text or markdown from over 50 languages across documents, audio, images, and video. It serves as a foundational tool for AI applications and LLM workflows, enabling high-quality text extraction, summarization, translation, and markdown conversion with flexible pricing and scalable usage.
How GetTxt.AI Works
- You provide one or more source URIs (PDFs, DOCX, images, audio, video, etc.).
- Call the API to extract text, convert formats (PDF to Markdown or Text), and optionally summarize or translate in a single request.
- Receive structured results with extracted text, summaries (long and short), and translations in your preferred language.
The API is designed to simplify integration, reduce dependency sprawl (one API instead of many), and speed up development with predictable, pay-as-you-go pricing.
