Why use TextTidyTools?

Most text jobs are small. You need to know whether a description fits in 160 characters, strip the duplicate rows out of a list a colleague sent you, or check how long a script runs when read aloud. Opening a word processor for that is overkill, and pasting a client's draft into an unknown website is worse.

Each tool here is a single page that loads in well under a second, does one thing carefully, and explains exactly how it counts or converts. Nothing to learn, no export queue, and no free tier that asks for a card at 500 words.

The tools are also honest about their limits. Sentence detection in English is a heuristic, reading speed varies enormously between people, and keyword frequency describes word distribution — not search rankings. Where a result is an estimate the page says so, and the methodology page shows the assumption behind every number.

Privacy-first text processing

Every calculation happens inside your browser tab, in JavaScript that ships with the page. Text you type stays in the page's memory: it is not sent to a server, not written to a database, and not passed to an analytics script. Open your browser's network panel and type into any tool — there is no request to watch.

That has a practical consequence worth knowing before you rely on it: we could not show you your text again even if you asked. Nothing survives a reload unless you switch on "remember this text" for a tool, which writes to your own device's local storage and is deleted the moment you switch it back off. The privacy policy covers the rest, including what our host and the optional analytics tag can see.

Who these tools are for

  • Writers and editors checking length with the word counter before filing a draft.
  • Students hitting an essay word count, then fixing a heading with the title case converter.
  • Marketers and SEO specialists fitting meta descriptions to a character limit and building URL slugs.
  • Developers switching identifiers between camelCase and snake_case and removing duplicate lines from logs.
  • Speakers and video creators timing a script before recording so it fits the slot.
  • Anyone who has pasted text out of a PDF and watched the line breaks fall apart.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account to use these tools?

No. There is no sign-up form anywhere on the site, and no tool is gated behind one. Open a page and start typing.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. All processing runs in your browser with local JavaScript. The pages contain no upload code, so there is nothing to intercept. You can verify this yourself by opening the network tab of your browser tools and typing into any tool.

Are the tools really free?

Yes, all of them, with no usage caps, no paid tier and no account. If advertising is added later to cover hosting, it will never gate a tool, sit inside the text workspace, or receive what you type.

Can I use the results for professional work?

You can, but treat counts and estimates as measurements rather than rulings. Word processors and publishing platforms sometimes count slightly differently — our methodology page explains our rules so you can reconcile any difference.

Do the tools work on a phone?

Yes. Every page is laid out for small screens first, with tap targets sized for thumbs and text areas that stay usable in portrait mode.

Which languages are supported?

The interface is in English, and the word and sentence rules are tuned for English. Counting characters, lines and paragraphs works for any language, including Korean, Japanese and Chinese text, though word counts for languages that do not separate words with spaces will not be meaningful.
