TextMaster Rolls Out API For Its Copywriting, Translation And Proofreading Platform

124828v2-max-250x250Its not a spelling mistake, its a typo. Thats my line and Im sticking to it. But what if proof reading, along with copywriting and translation, could be offered akin to a Software-as-a-Service, API included? Thats the ambitious aim of TextMaster which this week uncloaked its technology stack to enable third-parties to start building apps that integrate the full functionality of its service.TextMaster offers a platform for content creators to crowdsource their copywriting, translation and proofreading needs via its community of professionals who have each gone through a quality vetting process and are paid per-word. One way to think of the service is a Mechanical Turk for a very specific niche, while the bigger vision is to disrupt the respective copywriting, translation and proofreading industries. As an example, the translation industry is thought to be a $20B market.To that end, some of TextMasters competitors include Greatcontent, and Textbroker (copywriting), Wordy (proofreading), and Mygengo (translation), which already offers an API.
