Free Text Tools — Word Counter, Formatter, Sorter and More

Paste or type your text into the Word Counter tool and it shows the word count, character count, sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading time instantly. There is no character limit — you can paste an entire essay, article, or report. The reading time estimate uses an average adult reading speed of 200–238 words per minute.

A case converter changes the capitalisation of text. Common options include UPPER CASE (all capitals), lower case (all small letters), Title Case (first letter of each word capitalised), Sentence case (first letter of each sentence capitalised), and alternating case. This is useful for formatting headings, cleaning up data exports, and fixing text that was typed with Caps Lock on.

Paste your list into the Remove Duplicate Lines tool and it strips every repeated line, keeping only the first occurrence of each. This is useful when combining lists from different sources, cleaning up URL lists, and deduplicating email or contact exports before importing them into a CRM.

Yes. The Text Sorter arranges lines in alphabetical or reverse alphabetical order. You can also sort numerically if the lines start with numbers. Paste any list — names, URLs, keywords, product titles — and download or copy the sorted result in seconds.

A URL slug is the lowercase, hyphenated version of a title used in web addresses. For example, the title 'Best Free Image Tools Online' becomes 'best-free-image-tools-online'. The Text to Slug Converter handles this automatically: it lowercases the text, replaces spaces with hyphens, and removes characters that are not valid in URLs. This is useful for content management systems, blog platforms, and any workflow where you create URLs from text.

Use the Text Reverser tool. You can reverse either the full string character by character (so 'Hello World' becomes 'dlroW olleH') or reverse the order of the words (so 'Hello World' becomes 'World Hello'). This is used in coding exercises, data formatting, puzzle creation, and occasional creative writing workflows.

A word counter counts the number of separate words separated by spaces. A character counter counts every individual character including spaces, punctuation, and letters. Character counts are important for social media posts (Twitter's 280-character limit), SMS messages (160 characters per segment), and meta descriptions (typically kept under 160 characters for SEO). The Word Counter tool on Toolbox Hub shows both figures simultaneously.
