A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, that keeps info in human-readable form and not code. It may be created for a domain or a subdomain for various purposes. Search engines like Google, for instance, have different ways of making sure that you are the owner of a certain domain and one of them is in fact by creating a TXT record with certain text which they provide and that you must use as the record value. The same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your websites as well. Of course, in this situation the content of the record is going to be read by a robot, but it'll still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also employed in case you activated the so-called SPF protection for your email addresses in order to prevent them from being forged. In this case, the record contains information showing that a certain electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any other information as well, just like your company details, for example.
