Wow, we've tried to solve this problem inhouse and our results are much worse than this. One question, how hard is to detect that kind of expresions inside a random text? Like gmail does for suggesting a calendar appoinment within an email.

Even though the demo website expects the whole input to be a time expression, Duckling actually detects substrings inside a larger block of text.

We've mostly used it on short sentences, but it should work on larger inputs, like articles. I'd recommend splitting very large inputs into sentences though.

Demo site updated, now shows partial parses.

Great! I'm sure we will use it soon. Thanks!
