For researchers who work with text
TAPoR catalogues concordancers, annotators, topic models, stylometry packages, and visualization environments. Every record notes the platform, the license, and what the tool is actually good for.

UDPipe is a trainable pipeline for tokenization, tagging, lemmatization and dependency parsing of CoNLL-U files. UDPipe is language-agnostic and can be trained given annotated data in CoNLL-U format. Trained models are provided for nearly all UD treebanks. UDPipe is available as a binary for Linux/Windows/OS X, as a library for C++, Python, Perl, Java, C#, and as a web service. Third-party R CRAN package also exists.

Umigon is a tool used for the sentiment analysis of texts. It is one of the tools of the Nocode app which is a suite of text analysis tools. Results can be exported in Excel or CSV format for further analysis. It was formerly a stand alone web-based and open-source tool for the sentiment analysis of tweets. From a person's Twitter handle, Umigon retrieved that account's tweets and processed them for sentiment while accounting for factual statements (ex: "I hate war" will be classified has negative, and "war in Syria" will be classified as neutral). Tweets could also be pasted manually in the entry box provided. Beyond sentiment analysis, Umigon could identify characteristics such as whether the tweet contains a question, whether it contains possible promotional/commercial subject matter, or temporal indicators based on tense. The developer of this application can be reached on Twitter. As of April 2022, Umigon has been archived after a long period without new developments.

VAnnotatoR is a system that massively supports the annotation of multimedia, multimodal networks of linguistic and object-related data in virtual 3D environments. VAnnotatoR allows for segmenting and linking texts and images with other multimedia, multimodal data to ultimately create spatial hypertexts. It can be used to support concrete technical applications, e.g. the reconstruction of 3D scenes from texts as a preparatory step for the training of Text2Scene systems, or for applications in the digital humanities, such as the spatial reconstruction and linking of historical scenes or biographies with corresponding media content, such as images or 3D reconstructions of historical buildings. The entire system is interactively accessible with VR glasses in Virtual Reality (VR) and can be controlled and experienced accordingly. VAnnotatoR uses TextAnnotator as technological backbone and thus all its functions for annotation, task management, annotation evaluation as well as for collaborative and simultaneous processing of resources. Furthermore, VAnnotatoR uses TextImager to benefit from its NLP routines for automatic text analysis. VAnnotatoR is implemented on the basis of Unity3D and OpenVR and therefore runs with both systems and several VR glasses – it was tested on Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest, HTC Vive and HTC Vive Cosmos under Windows 10. A demonstration of its usage can be found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBUg8mHT0iI
