The, and, of and their friends removed, leaving the words that carry the meaning.

Remove language-specific stopwords from tokenised text, with an optional custom list.

Input

Send either a text string or a file object. A file is decoded as UTF-8 and must be one of text/plain, text/markdown, text/html, text/csv.

Response

The result carries your remaining balance alongside it, so you can track spend without a second call.

{
  "text": "sat mat",
  "kept": 2,
  "removed": 4,
  "language": "english",
  "request_id": "37f01edb-0163-42a1-ac51-0acaef979800",
  "credits_remaining": 96
}

Cost

3 credits per call, whether it is run from the site or from the API — the credential differs, the price does not. A new account starts with 20 credits.

A rejected request still costs a credit: the authorizer decrements before the tool validates. A call rejected for a missing or invalid key is free.

Parameters

Generated from the endpoint’s own validation, so this is exactly what it accepts. A body field goes at the top level; an option goes inside options.
