Open tool：Word Counter✍️ Free Text & Writing Tools
The Text & Writing category includes free tools for counting, cleaning, and converting text so writing, editing, and data work go faster. From staying within character limits to tidying messy pasted text and converting between data formats, you can handle it here.
Tools in this category：12 tools
Writers and students use word and character counts to meet length limits, while anyone organizing data can clean blank or duplicate lines and sort content. For developers, JSON formatting, Base64, URL encoding, and CSV/JSON conversion save manual effort. Everything runs locally, so pasted text is never sent to a server.

- Stay within character limits for posts and forms
- Clean up messy text copied from PDFs or web pages
- Remove blank and duplicate lines from lists
- Beautify or validate JSON and convert CSV data
