A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, which contains data in human-readable form and not code. It may be set up for a domain name or a subdomain for a variety of purposes. Search engines like Google, for instance, have different ways of confirming that you're the owner of a given domain and one of them is in fact by creating a TXT record with specific text that they provide and which you should use as the record value. The very same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your Internet sites as well. However, in such a case 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 if you activated the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In cases like this, the record contains data showing that a particular digital message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any other information as well, like your company details, for instance.
