The Xweather Phrases API turns complex weather data into natural language summaries for any audience, in over 50 languages.
The Phrases API bridges the gap between complex meteorological data and information that non-specialists can act on.
Three generative AI-powered endpoints produce concise, readable weather summaries covering current conditions, active alerts, and activity-specific impact assessments.
From automated broadcast scripts to in-app driver warnings, the Phrases API delivers live weather data, producing current and relevant output rather than templated responses.
)
Multi-language functionality makes weather summaries accessible to global audiences without additional translation infrastructure. Choose style anywhere between formal broadcast language and conversational delivery.
)

The Phrases API is included in the Weather API and Maps subscription. Access all endpoints with a free weather API key.
The Phrases API converts complex weather data into natural language summaries that non-specialists can understand and act on. Three endpoints cover current conditions, active alerts, and activity-specific impact assessments. Responses are generated from live weather data using generative AI, in over 50 supported languages.
Three endpoints: /phrases/conditions returns a summary of current and forecast weather for a location, /phrases/alerts returns a summary of active government-issued weather alerts, and /phrases/impacts/:activity returns weather risk descriptions for a specific activity (general outdoor, roadway trucking, or maritime operations).
The Weather API returns structured meteorological data (temperature, wind speed, precipitation, etc.) in JSON format for programmatic use. The Phrases API returns natural language summaries of that same data, formatted as readable text for display to end users or integration into content pipelines. Both are included in the same Weather API and Maps subscription.
Responses support over 50 languages. Optional personality presets adjust the output style, from formal broadcast language to conversational delivery. The language parameter is set per request, allowing different languages for different audiences within the same application.
The Phrases API is included in the Weather API and Maps subscription. A free 30-day developer trial provides access to all endpoints. Paid subscriptions start at $300 per month for 1 million accesses.
