## About

## What it does
HTML Text Extractor turns raw HTML into clean, readable text. Send it an `html` string, optionally add a canonical `url`, and get back extracted `text` plus its `length`.

Use it when you need the main content from a page without navigation, boilerplate, or layout markup. It is useful for content indexing, search previews, ingestion pipelines, and downstream NLP workflows where HTML noise gets in the way.

The response is intentionally simple: plain text for the extracted content and an integer length for quick checks, logging, or batching. If you already know the source page URL, include it to help extraction quality on pages with ambiguous structure.

This service fits cleanly into scraping, article processing, and content analysis systems that need readable text rather than rendered HTML.
