A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with a domain as a DNS record for one purpose or other. The most popular use of a TXT record is to add your web site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides info about the traffic to your web site. Setting up this kind of a record works as verification that you are the domain address owner and they'll provide the content that you should include as the value when you create the record. Another use of a TXT record is to validate that an email message is sent by the Internet domain owner and from a reliable server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which prevents any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send out spam making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You could add any other info that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
