copy-cleanse

Text from an AI chat carries baggage you cannot see: em dashes, curly quotes, hidden characters, even tracking links. Paste it into copy-cleanse and get it back clean, with every change highlighted so you can see what was caught.

This sample looks like ordinary text. Every highlight below is something copy-cleanse finds and fixes. Pick a category to isolate it, or switch to the cleaned version.

𝗦𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱 growth across every sеgmentBLANKand region.

24 characters across 9 categories. Markdown marks are the one optional category: they are stripped by default, and the "Keep Markdown formatting" switch above leaves them in.

Every highlight is a character you cannot see, or would not think to look for. Nothing gets rewritten: only these artifacts change, and the rest of your words stay exactly as they were.

What it catches

  • Hidden characters

    Zero-width spaces, soft hyphens, word joiners, and other marks that take up no room but travel with your text.

  • Look-alike characters

    Odd spaces, fancy styled letters, and Cyrillic or Greek letters that pass for Latin ones inside a word.

  • Typography habits

    Em dashes, curly quotes, and the single ellipsis character, all turned into the plain keyboard versions.

  • Leftovers

    Leaked citation markers, AI tracking parameters on links, and Markdown symbols when you do not want them.

Private, and honest about its limits

  • It runs entirely in your browser. Your text is never sent to a server.
  • It does not rewrite anything. Your words stay yours; only character-level artifacts change.
  • It does not claim to beat AI detectors. Those look at word choice, which no character cleaner can touch.
  • Markdown is on by default, with a switch to keep it and a button to copy real formatting into Docs or Word.
