Text & Writing
Count, transform, and clean up text with instant results.
14 tools in this category, all running locally in your browser.
The text tools help you clean up, transform, and measure writing in seconds: count words and characters, change case, find and replace, sort and de-duplicate lines, remove line breaks, reverse text, generate slugs or placeholder Lorem Ipsum, and compare two versions side by side. Results update as you type, and nothing you paste is ever sent off your device, so it is safe to work with private notes, drafts, and confidential copy.

Common questions
Is the text I paste kept private?
Yes. All processing happens in your browser. The text you paste is never uploaded or logged on a server, so drafts, notes, and sensitive content stay on your machine.
Do the tools update as I type?
Yes. Counts, transformations, and comparisons recalculate instantly with each keystroke, so you get live feedback without pressing a button.
Is there a length limit on the text?
There is no set limit. Very large blocks of text are processed in memory, so extremely long documents may respond more slowly on lower-powered devices.
