🔁 Find and replace

Replace every occurrence of a word or phrase across a whole block of text at once. Leave the replacement empty to delete what you found.

Find and replace

Also do this, in one go

Tick anything else you need and it runs on the same text — no reloading, no copying between pages. Steps run top to bottom.

Everything runs inside your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded or stored.

Whole words matter more than people expect

Replacing "old" with "new" in the sample text also hits "Golden" and turns it into "Gnewen". That is the single most common way a find-and-replace quietly ruins a document, and it is why whole words only exists. With it on, only old standing on its own is replaced — "Golden" is left alone.

Matching capitalisation

By default the search ignores case, so "Old", "old" and "OLD" are all found. That is usually what you want when cleaning up inconsistent text. Turn on match capitalisation when the difference is deliberate — replacing a variable name in code, or a brand that is written one specific way.

Regular expressions, without the crash

For anything patterned rather than literal — every number, every line starting with a date, everything between two brackets — tick the regular expression option. An unfinished or invalid pattern leaves your text exactly as it was instead of throwing an error or wiping the box, so you can type a pattern gradually and watch it take effect.

Deleting rather than replacing

Leave the replacement field empty and every match is removed. Combined with the extra steps below, that covers most cleanup jobs in one pass: strip a repeated prefix, drop the lines that are now empty, and tidy the leftover spacing without touching a second tool.
