What this tool does

Use this tool to normalize text into a slug with configurable separator style, stop words, max length, and URL-safe behavior.

Common use cases

Create URL-safe identifiers from titles, headings, filenames, and labels before publishing pages, routes, documentation, or test data.

Use Slug Generator when pasted text needs counting, cleanup, rewriting, list preparation, formatting, or a final check before it goes into an email, document, CMS, spreadsheet, prompt, or publishing workflow.

Clean pasted copyProcess drafts, notes, prompts, spreadsheet cells, or lists before moving text into a CMS, document, ticket, email, or editor.
Check a list or countUse the result to review line order, duplicates, spacing, punctuation, word counts, character counts, or formatting before publishing or sharing.
Preserve meaningAfter cleanup or transformation, read a sample of the output so automation has not removed context, changed wording, or broken destination formatting.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type your text.
  2. Choose a separator and optional options (case, stop words, length, URL-safe mode).
  3. Copy the generated slug and use it directly in your workflow.

Example workflow

Paste the text you need to count, clean, split, join, sort, or reformat. Review the word, character, line, sentence, paragraph, spacing, or list result, then copy the cleaned output into your document, spreadsheet, CMS, prompt, or editor.

Privacy note

Slug generation runs locally in your browser. No pasted text is sent to any server.

  • It does not check whether a URL already exists on your site.
  • It does not create redirects.
  • Non-Latin transliteration may be limited by browser behavior.

Practical FAQ

Should every slug be short?

Usually yes. Keep slugs readable, remove filler words when useful, and avoid changing published URLs unless you also handle redirects.

What is a slug generator?

A slug generator converts a title or phrase into a short URL-friendly identifier by normalizing words, removing unsafe characters, and joining terms with a separator.

Does the slug generator upload my text?

No. Slug generation runs locally in your browser and does not send pasted text to ClearUtils servers.

Which slug formats are supported?

You can generate standard hyphen slugs, underscore slugs, dot-separated slugs, or an SEO mode that removes common stop words and caps output length.
