In this tutorial, you will learn how to use Summarization API in 5 minutes using JavaScript. Eden AI provides a unique, easy and developer-friendly API that allows you to summarize texts with the provider of your choice.
What is Text Summarization?
Text Summarization API is a technology that uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning algorithms to automatically generate a condensed version of a longer piece of text, preserving its key information and main points. The API takes as input a text document or article, and outputs a shorter summary that conveys the most important information contained in the original text.
The length of the summary can be adjusted based on specific requirements, including the desired length of the output. The text summarization API can be used in a variety of applications, such as news aggregation, document summarization, content extraction, and sentiment analysis.
