## About

## What it does
Readable Content Extractor pulls the main article text and title out of HTML using readability algorithms. Send it a page URL, raw HTML, or both, and get back cleaned content you can use without layout noise, navigation, or ads.

The input is a `body` object with required `html`, plus an optional `url` for pages where the source address helps with extraction. The response includes `title`, `short_title`, `content`, and `length`, so you can decide whether the extraction succeeded and how much text was recovered.

Use Readable Content Extractor when you need to turn web pages into article text for indexing, summarization, content analysis, or storage in a knowledge base. It is useful for crawlers, reading apps, and pipeline steps that need article text instead of full page markup.

If the HTML contains a clear main story or post, this service isolates it and returns a normalized text version you can pass to downstream processing.
