Inhalt

Have you ever manually extracted terms from hundreds of documents? Do you regularly check dozens of topics for violations of writing rules? Do you sometimes feel that these tasks should be automated but enterprise-grade software is too expensive? If yes, then why not build your own tools? Using Python, we will write our own scripts for terminology extraction and language checking and apply them to real-world content.
