The writer's essentials
10 toolsText Counter
Live word, sentence and reading-time counts plus the top 20 most-used words. The fastest way to spot a draft that repeats itself.
Find and Replace Text
Polish a draft in bulk: kill double spaces, swap a name across the manuscript, replace placeholders. Regex mode for the careful cases.
Sort Text Lines
Sort a list of citations, characters, scenes or anything that has to land in order. Numeric sort handles "Chapter 10" correctly.
Remove Duplicate Lines
Strip duplicate lines from a research dump or a notes export while keeping the original order intact.
Letter Case Converter
Six case modes for headlines, dialogue tags, glossaries. Sentence case respects Spanish opening punctuation (¿¡).
Lorem Ipsum Generator
Realistic placeholder paragraphs for layout drafts when the real copy is not ready yet.
Add / Remove Line Breaks
Flatten a paragraph copied from a PDF into a single line, or split prose into N words per line for layout wrapping.
Remove Extra Spaces
Tidy whitespace before submission: leading, trailing, collapse runs to one space, or strip everything for compact strings.
Remove Letter Accents
Strip diacritics for filenames, search inputs or systems that hate them, while keeping ñ as a real letter.
Reverse Text
Quick palindrome check, puzzle generator, or a way to obfuscate a sentence for fun. Handles emoji and accented chars.
Editorial workflows
Manuscript clean-up
Run Remove Extra Spaces (extra mode), then Find and Replace to fix curly quotes vs straight quotes, then Text Counter to verify chapter length is in the target range.
Citation sort
Paste your bibliography lines, run Sort Lines alphabetically with dedupe on, copy the result back into your document.
PDF paragraph rescue
Paste the broken paragraph into Add / Remove Line Breaks (remove mode), get one clean line, paste back into your editor.
