#search

The live Baidu trending boards (百度热搜), read keyless from Baidu's public "top" board endpoint. Baidu is China's dominant search engine, and its hot-search board is the country's most-watched read on what people are searching for right now — the Chinese equivalent of Google Trends' real-time list, the pulse of the Chinese internet. The realtime endpoint returns the main national hot-search board ranked by heat: each entry with its rank, the trending word, Baidu's heat score (its own searches-driven ranking metric), whether it is rising, falling or steady, an editorial tag and a one-line description. The category endpoint returns one of Baidu's themed boards — film, TV drama, novels, games, cars or finance — the same way. This is the Baidu trending cut — distinct from the Western trends feeds (Google, Wikipedia, Reddit) and from the platform feeds in the catalogue: it is what China is searching for. Heat scores are Baidu's own ranking metric, not a raw search count; words and descriptions are in Chinese as Baidu publishes them. Counts are the real, live numbers Baidu shows; a short cache fronts the upstream. Keyless.

Real-time Reddit data as an API — subreddits, posts, comments, user profiles and search, returned as clean JSON. Pull a subreddit's info and its hot, new, top or rising posts; fetch a post together with its full comment tree; look up any user's profile, karma, submissions and comments; search posts across all of Reddit or within one subreddit; and list the trending posts and the most popular subreddits. Live data, paginated with Reddit cursors, with scores, upvote ratios, comment counts, flair, timestamps, thumbnails and media URLs. Ideal for social listening and brand monitoring, trend and sentiment dashboards, content aggregation, research and market intelligence, and bots. 11 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per plan.

Highlight search terms in text. The highlight endpoint wraps every match of one or more terms in a marker — defaulting to <mark>…</mark>, or any open/close strings you choose (** for Markdown, ANSI codes for the terminal, a CSS span, anything) — and returns the marked-up text and a match count. The snippets endpoint returns short excerpts of the surrounding context around each match, the way a search-results page shows where your query appears. Matching is case-insensitive by default with optional whole-word mode, and terms are matched literally (regex characters are safely escaped). Perfect for search results and in-page find, keyword spotting, log review and document previews. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. Distinct from search, summarization and diff APIs.

Reduce words to their linguistic root (stem) with the classic Snowball stemming algorithms — running → run, fishing → fish, nationalization → nation — across 24 languages including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Arabic, Finnish, Swedish and more. Stem a whole text (every word, returning both the per-word mapping and the fully stemmed text) or a single word. Stemming is the core normalisation step behind search engines, query expansion, text indexing, keyword matching and NLP preprocessing. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 4 endpoints. Distinct from sentiment/NLP analysis and fuzzy string matching.

The Internet Archive as an API — the non-profit digital library of over 40 million freely accessible items: books and texts, audio and live-music concerts, films and video, software, images and archived web pages. Search the entire archive by keyword with full Lucene field syntax (by creator, title, subject, collection and more), filter by media type (texts, audio, movies, image, software, web, live concerts) and sort by downloads, date or trending popularity, getting each item's identifier, title, creator, media type, year, download count and collections; read an item's full metadata including its description, creators, subjects, language, collections, publisher, license, dates and total size; list an item's downloadable files with their format, size, length and a direct download URL; and look up the closest Wayback Machine snapshot of any web page — the archived flag, the snapshot date and HTTP status, and the web.archive.org link, optionally near a target timestamp. Ideal for research, digital preservation, media discovery, dataset building, link-rot recovery and apps that surface public-domain and openly-licensed culture. Data from the Internet Archive (archive.org).

Extract text from PDF documents: the complete document text, the text of every page separately, the document metadata (page count, title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, creation and modification dates, PDF version, encryption and outline flags), and a full in-document search that returns the matching pages with hit counts and context snippets. Supply a PDF by public URL, base64 or a raw binary request body; only public http/https URLs are accepted and private or internal hosts are blocked. Pure server-side computation (pdf.js, no third-party upstream, no per-page cloud cost). Ideal for document indexing and search, data extraction and ETL, invoice and contract processing, archiving and content pipelines.

Built on the open stopwords-iso dataset and served entirely in-memory, so responses are instant and the service is always available. Ideal for search indexing and relevance, NLP preprocessing and text mining, keyword extraction, tag generation and content tooling.
