What does this do exactly?

It's the inverse of JSON Stringify Text: it parses a JSON string literal (starting and ending with double quotes) and returns the raw, unescaped text it represents.

What if my input isn't a valid JSON string?

A clear error message is shown — either the input isn't valid JSON at all, or it parses to something other than a string (e.g. a number or object).

Is my text sent to your servers?

No. Parsing runs entirely in your browser.
