ClearText Editor

A browser-based text editor for anyone who needs to hit an exact word or character count, clean up messy pasted text, or just write without an account getting in the way. Nothing typed here leaves the browser — no server, no sign-up, no saved history anywhere but the local device.

When the Exact Count Matters

Writing a cover letter capped at 300 words, a tweet that has to fit 280 characters, or a product description with a hard 150-character limit — the built-in counter tracks all of it live, with preset limits for common platforms and a custom field for anything else. A progress bar shows exactly how much room is left, so there's no copying text into a separate counter tool to check before pasting it somewhere with a strict limit.

Cleaning Up Text Copied From Somewhere Else

Text pasted from a PDF, an email thread, or another app often carries double spaces, stray line breaks, or leftover special characters that don't show up until the text is somewhere else. One click strips double spaces, clears empty lines, and removes special characters — faster than manually hunting through a paragraph for formatting left over from wherever it came from.

Fixing Inconsistent Capitalization

Text copied from a source that used ALL CAPS headers, or a list where capitalization varies line to line, converts instantly to uppercase, lowercase, Title Case, or Sentence case — no retyping, no fixing letter by letter.

Knowing How Long a Draft Will Take

A speech, a podcast script, or a presentation benefits from knowing runtime before standing up to deliver it — the editor estimates reading time at 225 words per minute and speaking time at 130, updating as the draft changes, so a script that's running long shows up before it's too late to trim it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an account?

No. Opening the page is the only step — there's no sign-up or login at any point.

Where does my text go when I close the tab?

It stays on the device, saved to the browser's local storage automatically. It won't appear on a different browser or device, since nothing is sent to a server.

What can I export the finished text as?

A .txt file, or copy it straight to the clipboard for pasting anywhere else.

Is there a limit to how much I can write?

No. The character limit checker is there to match external platform limits — it doesn't cap what can actually be typed into the editor.
