This looks great. I'm building http://dokket.aws.af.cm. It's a database filled with documents from the Federal Communications Commission. From day 1, I've been looking for smart ways to make use of the thousands of documents of unstructured text. The customization you offer seems to be the killer feature for me.

I'll write a Ruby api wrapper if you give me an agreed-upon amount of usage when you settle on pricing.

Feel free to email me (HN name @ gmail) if you're interested or just want to follow up for customer development purposes.

Best of luck!

I am also building an application that could use this service. So I tested TextRazor and the results were not good on two random articles I processed with the service.

I really want this to work out, because my application needs this kind of technology to be reliable and accurate. I just processed the article at the link below, and the word "Tesla" was not captured as one of the topics. http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/most-peculiar-test-drive-fol...

It works for me.
I just tried it again and it worked this time. That is interesting: I don't know if they tweaked it a bit or not :), but I am feeling a bit better now, because my application really needs a reliable, accurate service like this.
No tweaking, promise :) It's possible you hit an inconsistent server first time around, I'll have a dig on our end. Let me know if you have any other problems - toby@textrazor.com.
