LINDAT UDPipe API

Public keyless REST API for tokenization, part-of-speech tagging, lemmatization and dependency parsing of CoNLL-U data, operated by UFAL at Charles University. The live service advertised 961 Universal Dependencies models when probed on 2026-09-01. The OpenAPI here is derived by API Evangelist from the service's own published REST API reference and verified against live responses; UFAL publishes documentation, not a machine-readable contract.

Operations 3

GET /models List available UDPipe models #
GET /process Process supplied data through the UDPipe pipeline #
POST /process Process supplied data (form-encoded or file upload) #

Work with this as data

Every API here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
