Text Analysis tools used to be one of my favorite DH things. Now with experiences of programs failing right when I need them and HTRC and Constellate sunsetting, I'm starting to thinking that hard coding is the more sustainable option. However, that doesn't even account for the copyright issues😞
Reminder that even the out-of-copyright scans from Google Books are subject to license agreements and such, so once HTRC is sunset as an entity within HathiTrust, they're not able to serve as a broker for access to that stuff either. 😬

Somehow only just became aware of LlooM, a toolkit that uses a combination of clustering and prompts to extract concepts and describe custom datasets — similar to a topic model. Looks nice, with lots of documentation and open colab notebooks!
Has anyone used it?
