Hello

I wanted to know if there are any paid or free named entity recognition web services available.

Basically I'm looking for something - where if I pass a text like: "John had french fries at Burger King"

It should be identify - something along the lines: Person: John Organization: Burger King

I've heard of Annie from GATE - but I dont think it has a web service available.

Thanks

This service is by Reuters, so is pretty awesome at detecting Political entities , Companies, etc.. but not food items
Its free if your needs are not that large.. or you could buy a license key.
