Text Segmentation
This model is no longer supported.
Takes a document (raw text or URL) and returns segmentation into paragraphs by topic.
This model is no longer supported. For better results, see Jamba 1.5.
AI21 Studio's Text Segmentation model breaks down a piece of text into concurrent segments that cover the same topic.
Each call can handle up to 100,000 characters, which translates to roughly 20,000 words, or 80 pages. This can be used, for example, to segment a long text into smaller chunks and summarize each segment separately.

Features
Different types
In addition to working with free text, this API can also work directly with your favorite (or least favorite) webpage URLs! No need to spend time and effort scraping text yourself - just input the required URL and let the summarization begin.
Note: if the webpage you are trying to summarize is behind a paywall or restricted access, your call will fail and will result in an error.
Examples
This API is really helpful when you have long text to process and you have some length limitations in your flow. Following are some examples illustrating both use cases and special features you can take advantage of with this API.
Summarize a long text
If you want to summarize long texts, you may encounter an issue: the Summarize API is limited to 50,000 characters. You can use the Segmentation API for texts twice as long (100,000 characters).
The example below shows a typical flow for summarizing texts longer than Summarize APIs character limit. First, we call Segmentation and get a list of segments. Second, we iterate through the list and perform a Summarize call to summarize each segment. We print the summaries in order to form a summary of the entire document.
Imagine that we want to summarize the Wikipedia page on Tom Brady. The following call to the Summarize endpoint will result in an error:
from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models import DocumentType
client = AI21Client(
# This is the default and can be omitted

response = client.summarize.create(
source="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Brady",
source_type=DocumentType.URL,
)
# Error! Input text exceeds max characters limit: 50000
However, with the Segmentation API you will get the text divided to segments, each of which can be passed to the Summarize endpoint:
from ai21 import AI21Client
from ai21.models import DocumentType
client = AI21Client(
# This is the default and can be omitted
