Emoji Strip API
Strip, extract and count emoji in any text. The strip endpoint removes every emoji from a string — or replaces each one with a marker you choose — and gets multi-code-point emoji right: ZWJ sequences like the family 👩👩👧👦, skin-tone modifiers (👍🏽), country flags (🇩🇪), keycaps (1️⃣) and variation selectors all count as a single emoji, so nothing is left half-deleted. The extract endpoint lists every emoji it finds with its position in the text and returns per-emoji and unique counts, ideal for analytics and moderation. A bare ©, ® or ™ is deliberately left alone unless it carries an emoji variation selector, and plain digits are never touched. Perfect for cleaning user input before search indexing or storage, sanitising usernames and display names, moderation and analytics, and preparing text for systems that choke on emoji. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This cleans and extracts emoji from text; to look an emoji up by name or shortcode use an emoji database API, and to count graphemes use a text-segmentation API.
