Build a Free AI Text Analysis API with Node.js and Deploy to Render

In this guide, you'll build a text analysis API using Node.js and deploy it for free on Render.com.

The API Endpoints

  • POST /analyze - Analyze text (word count, keywords, sentiment)
  • GET /health - Health check
  • GET /pricing - Usage plans

Server Setup

const http = require("http");
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 8766;

const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
    res.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");

    if (req.url === "/health") {
        return res.end(JSON.stringify({ status: "active" }));
    }

    if (req.url === "/analyze" && req.method === "POST") {
        let body = "";
        req.on("data", chunk => body += chunk);
        req.on("end", () => {
            const { text } = JSON.parse(body);
            const words = text.trim().split(/\s+/).length;
            const sentences = text.split(/[.!?]+/).filter(s => s.trim()).length;
            res.end(JSON.stringify({ wordCount: words, sentenceCount: sentences }));
        });
    }
});

server.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`API on port ${PORT}`));
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Deploy to Render (Free)

  1. Push code to GitHub
  2. Go to Render.com (no credit card required)
  3. Connect repo, select Free plan
  4. Done - your API is live

Test It

curl -X POST https://your-app.onrender.com/analyze \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"text": "Hello world from my AI API"}'
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Returns:

{"wordCount":6,"sentenceCount":1}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
