API description

About the API:

The Food Text Analysis API is a powerful tool for extracting nutritional information from food items described in text form. By utilizing Natural Language Processing (NLP) and semantically structured data, the API can accurately identify and extract key nutritional information from unstructured text. This allows developers to analyze and understand the nutritional content of food items in a simple and intuitive way.

Whether you are creating a food-tracking app, a meal-planning platform, or a nutrition education resource, the Food Text Analysis API provides the information you need to build a useful and informative tool. With its advanced NLP algorithms and semantically structured data, the API can accurately extract nutritional information from a wide range of food-related text, including ingredient lists, recipes, restaurant menus, and more.

The API is easy to integrate into your existing workflow and requires no additional data entry or manual work on your part. Simply send the API a piece of text containing food-related information and receive a detailed report on the nutritional content of the food items described in that text. Whether you need to analyze a single piece of text or large volumes of data, the Food Text Analysis API is a fast and reliable solution for your needs

API Documentation

Endpoints


Extracts information from a short unstructured food text – usually an ingredient line and returns: - Structured data for the text – quantity, measure and food, if available - Diet, health and allergen labels for the text - With the build in food logging feature it allows for change of context. For example “rice” will normallly be matched to raw rice while with the food logging feature on it will match to ready to eat ‘cooked rice’

Zyla API Hub is, in other words, an API MarketPlace. An all-in-one solution for your developing needs. You will be accessing our extended list of APIs with only your user. Also, you won't need to worry about storing API keys, only one API key for all our products is needed.

Prices are listed in USD. We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world’s most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble with paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]

Sometimes depending on the bank's fraud protection settings, a bank will decline the validation charge we make when we attempt to be sure a card is valid. We recommend first contacting your bank to see if they are blocking our charges. If more help is needed, please contact [email protected] and our team will investigate further

Prices are based on a recurring monthly subscription depending on the plan selected — plus overage fees applied when a developer exceeds a plan’s quota limits. In this example, you'll see the base plan amount as well as a quota limit of API requests. Be sure to notice the overage fee because you will be charged for each additional request.

Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
