-The `Google Cloud Natural Language`_ API can be used to reveal the
-structure and meaning of text via powerful machine
-learning models. You can use it to extract information about
-people, places, events and much more, mentioned in text documents,
-news articles or blog posts. You can use it to understand
-sentiment about your product on social media or parse intent from
-customer conversations happening in a call center or a messaging
-app. You can analyze text uploaded in your request or integrate
-with your document storage on Google Cloud Storage.
+`Natural Language API`_: provides natural language understanding technologies to developers, including sentiment analysis, entity analysis, entity sentiment analysis, content classification, and syntax analysis. This API is part of the larger Cloud Machine Learning API family.
