Tools for Writing and Publishing
Grammar, style, newsletters — the writing stack, plus our small text utilities.
Writing well is a text-editor + a proofreader + a place to publish. The big-three tools (Grammarly, Hemingway, Substack or Ghost) cover 95% of what most writers need — we don't try to build our own versions.
Where we CAN help: turning a title into a URL slug, counting words for length targets, comparing two drafts side by side, generating placeholder text for mockups, and reading your work back aloud (yes, actually — see our text-to-speech).
Everyday writing helpers
Small utilities that live alongside the big writing tools.
- Word CounterInstantly count words, characters, sentences, paragraphs, lines, and reading time. Everything happens in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
- SlugifyConvert titles into clean URL slugs. Handles Unicode, strips diacritics, and lets you pick your separator. Runs in your browser.
- Case ConverterConvert text between 12 cases: lower, UPPER, Title, Sentence, camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, CONSTANT_CASE, kebab-case, dot.case, path/case, and aLtErNaTiNg. Runs entirely in your browser.
- Text DiffCompare two blocks of text line by line and see exactly what changed. Runs entirely in your browser using a longest-common-subsequence algorithm.
- Text to SpeechPaste any text and hear it read aloud in your choice of voice. Adjust rate and pitch. Uses your device's built-in voices — nothing is uploaded, no account needed.
- Lorem Ipsum GeneratorGenerate placeholder text in classic Lorem Ipsum or six themed flavors: hipster, pirate, corporate buzzword, cyberpunk, and cat. Adjust paragraph and sentence count.
