Text Tools
Text tools are for the small, frequent jobs around writing: checking a limit, cleaning a list, comparing a revision or formatting a reference. Each one opens with a large input area and a live result, so you can paste, read the answer and move on.

CITEWHAT YOU CAN DO HERE
02 / OVERVIEWEvery tool in this category is already usable and runs entirely in the browser. No account, no upload and no saved writing history.
Word Counter and Edit Counter both count words, but the first answers “how long is this text now?” while the second answers “how much did I change?”. Text Diff shows individual edits; Words per Page converts a count into a page estimate. Alphabetize List and Citation Generator both sort alphabetically, one for lists and one for bibliographies.
- Checking a word or character limit before submitting a form or application.
- Planning an essay or manuscript length before the first draft exists.
- Cleaning a bibliography, guest list or tag list without pasting names into an unknown server.
- Reviewing what changed between two drafts and describing the edits in a comment.
- Producing a reference list in a specific citation style.
- Checking a regular expression against a sample string before using it in code or a form.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
03 / FAQDo these tools save my text or my history?
No. Text is processed in the browser and is not uploaded or stored. Edit Counter keeps only two baseline numbers in session storage, and tool-to-tool hand-offs are one-time session values.
Do they work with Chinese text?
Yes. Word counting treats CJK characters one by one, list sorting supports pinyin collation, and the page estimator offers a character-based counting basis.
Can I use them offline?
Once a page has loaded, all processing is local. The Random Word Generator bundles its word list with the page and needs no network at all.
