AI Text Cleaner

Inspect hidden characters, choose what to clean, and review each change. Start with conservative cleanup or opt into punctuation and emoji removal.

No account. No text uploads. Cleanup runs in your browser and is not saved when you leave or reload.

What to clean

Conservative cleanup changes selected controls and special spaces only. Plain text also replaces dashes and curly quotes. Both preserve emojis and joiners.

Emoji removal is optional. It removes complete recognized sequences, including skin tones, flags and joined emojis. It does not trim the surrounding spaces.

Advanced cleanup rules

These characters can be valid. Removing spaces or joiners can change words and language shaping. Removing direction controls can change text order. Prime symbols can represent measurements. Inspect first.

Selected rules apply to all text, including code. Review the result before use.

Paste text, choose what to clean, then select Clean text.

Text cleanup examples

Hidden characters, punctuation and emojis need different rules. Each example shows the required option. The bracketed name makes an invisible character visible; it is not part of the copied output.

What this tool does

Conservative cleanup preserves punctuation, joiners and emojis. It removes selected control characters and converts special spaces to ordinary spaces. Plain-text cleanup also replaces dash variations and curly quotes. Advanced rules and emoji removal are separate opt-ins.

This is character cleanup, not an AI detector. It does not guarantee removal of AI watermarks or change whether a detector labels text as AI-generated. These characters can also appear in human-written text.

Show hidden characters to inspect names, code points, positions and planned actions before cleaning. The change report highlights each actual edit. Emoji removal handles complete recognized sequences, not just individual symbols.

This tool does not protect code blocks or inline code. Selected rules apply everywhere. Line breaks, tabs and Markdown backticks stay unchanged.

Originally built as Exort. The sanitizer now lives here, with a lighter interface. Special spaces are replaced instead of deleted to keep words apart.
