Access Adobe InDesign Files

Question

I need several directions for the following problem:

I have many InDesign files, and I need to set up a process that will track if a specific paragraph or text block has changed between different versions of the file. If the text block has changed, I want to extract this text block in a "portable" format (html, pdf, txt).

• Is there an Adobe product that would do this?
• Is there any public API to access the InDesign file?
• Is it possible to export InDesign to, say, html?
