Why did you decide to be integrated in Eden AI?

"Currently we have integrated Sentiment and Text Summarizer API at Eden AI .

Eden AI is simplifying the AI access to developers who do not wish to host large models for their development purpose. Providing AI as a Service (AIAAS) along with the ability to compare the metrics across the board amongst different providers, is novel and mutually beneficial to developers and providers."

This performant Sentiment Analysis engine can be directly used on Eden AI. It provides very good performance and recognizes text from many languages.
