About these tools
What counts as a "word"
Wordbench counts the way most word processors do — any run of characters separated by whitespace, so punctuation attached to a word (like "don't" or "well-known") never splits it into two. Sentences are split on periods, question marks, and exclamation points; paragraphs are detected by blank lines between blocks of text.
Why nothing here touches your original text
Every tool — case conversion, formatting, find & replace, reversing — reads from one box and writes to a separate result box. Your original stays untouched, so you can try a few options on the same input, or start over any time, without losing what you pasted in.

Quick answers
Is Wordbench free to use?
Yes. Every tool on this page is free, with no account, no sign-up, and no usage limit.
Does my text get uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing you type is sent to a server, logged, or saved — refresh the page and it's gone.
What exactly counts as a "word"?
Wordbench counts words the way most word processors do: any run of characters separated by whitespace. Punctuation attached to a word (like "don't" or "well-known") doesn't split it into two.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time assumes an average pace of 200 words per minute; speaking time assumes about 130 words per minute, roughly the pace of a spoken presentation. Both are estimates — actual pace varies by reader and content.
Will using a formatting tool change my original text?
No. Each tool leaves your original text in the input box untouched and puts the result in a separate output box, so you can compare the two or start over at any time.
What's the difference between snake_case and kebab-case?
Both lowercase your text and remove spaces and punctuation. snake_case joins words with underscores (common in code variables and file names), while kebab-case joins them with hyphens (common in URLs and CSS classes).
What does "whole word only" do in Find & Replace?
With it checked, "cat" will match "cat" but not "category" or "concatenate". With it unchecked, Find & Replace matches the text anywhere it appears, even inside a longer word.
Is the Base64 tool safe for encoding sensitive information?
Base64 is an encoding, not encryption — anyone who decodes the result gets your original text back. It's meant for tasks like preparing text for systems that require Base64 format, not for keeping anything secret.
Does the Palindrome Checker ignore spaces and punctuation?
Yes. It strips out spaces, punctuation, and capitalization before comparing, so phrases like "A man, a plan, a canal, Panama" are correctly recognized as palindromes, not just single words.
