How this service works
Document and data format conversions via Pandoc, Chromium-headless, and pure-JS libs. Text inputs/outputs are JSON-fielded; binary inputs/outputs use base64 in JSON for uniformity.
Output
A JSON object containing the extracted plain text content from the DOCX file, with formatting stripped away, ready for further processing or display.
Example use cases
Extract text from contract for AI review
“I just received a Word document contract from a vendor and need to quickly pull out all the plain text so I can feed it to my analysis agent — can you decode this base64 DOCX and give me just the raw text content? Here's the file: [base64string]”
Batch process uploaded documents into database
“Users are uploading Word documents through our app and I need to automatically extract the plain text from each one so we can index and search the content later — can you convert this base64-encoded DOCX to plain text for storage? [base64string]”
Convert formatted reports to email-friendly text
“I have a beautifully formatted Word report with tables and styling, but I need to send just the plain text version to our team via email so it's readable on mobile — can you strip all the formatting and pull out the text from this base64 DOCX? [base64string]”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://convert.boring-api.com/docx-to-textWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically extract plain text from a Microsoft Word DOCX file, especially in automated pipelines where you already have the file as base64. Prefer this over OCR-based solutions when the document is a native Word file (not a scanned image). At $0.005 per call it is cost-effective for one-off or moderate-volume conversions.
Side effects
- Invalid or corrupted base64 content returns an error
- Non-DOCX file encoded as base64 may fail to parse
- Missing content_base64 field returns a validation error
- Extremely large documents may time out
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC results in 402 response
