Add the text you want to transform, clean up, generate, or analyze.
Choose the output mode
Select the case, formatting, slug, or generation mode that matches your project.

Use the result directly in documents, code, URLs, or marketing assets.
Technical Context
Technical context
Text tools transform or count the value entered into the page. The result can depend on whitespace, punctuation, Unicode characters, and the selected mode, so compare a representative sample before relying on a count.

Quality checks and limitations
Review the complete output and test edge cases such as empty input, punctuation, and non-English characters where they matter to your work.
The tool is a focused utility rather than a substitute for reviewing the final file or data in its destination. Keep an unchanged source when the input is important, and use the relevant specialist software for requirements the page does not claim to support.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the JSON formatter do?
It pretty-prints minified JSON with consistent indentation, highlights syntax, and reports the exact line and character of any parse error.
Can it validate JSON as well as format it?
Yes. Every input is parsed first, so a valid document is reformatted and an invalid one returns a precise, actionable error instead of silent corruption.
Is my JSON sent to your servers?
No. Formatting and validation happen in your browser, so API payloads, tokens in test data, and customer records never leave your machine.
Can I minify JSON again after editing?
Yes. Use the minify option to strip all whitespace when you need the smallest possible payload for a request body.
Is there a size limit for large JSON files?
No server limit applies because nothing is uploaded — the practical limit is your device memory, which handles multi-megabyte payloads comfortably.
Is my text kept private in these text tools?
Yes. Text is transformed in your browser as you type, so drafts, manuscripts, and client copy are never uploaded, stored, or scanned.
