Turn a title or phrase into a lowercase, hyphenated URL slug, the readable tail of a web address. It updates as you type, in your browser.
Updated
Your browser is preparing the tool. It runs 100% locally.
Type a title and the tool returns a lowercase URL slug, with spaces turned into hyphens and punctuation removed. It keeps only a-z, 0-9 and hyphens, collapses repeated hyphens, and trims them from the ends, matching Google's advice to use hyphens as word separators. It strips characters instead of transliterating them, so an accented é is dropped rather than turned into e, and non-Latin scripts come out empty. Everything happens in your browser.
Paste a headline, product name or phrase and you get the slug, the human-readable part of a URL like /best-online-tools, built as you type. Spaces become hyphens, capitals become lowercase, and anything that is not a letter, digit or hyphen is removed, so the result drops straight into a path.
The slugs are predictable. There is no dictionary, stop-word removal or transliteration; you get the lowercase letters, digits and hyphens of what you typed, with repeated and edge hyphens cleaned up.
The tool lowercases your text, then removes every character that is not a lowercase letter, a digit, whitespace or a hyphen. It collapses each run of spaces into a single hyphen, reduces any run of hyphens to one, and trims a leading or trailing hyphen so the slug never starts or ends with a dash.
Because the filter is a strict allow-list, accented and non-Latin characters are dropped, not converted. Café Münchner becomes caf-mnchner, and a title written in Cyrillic or Hindi returns an empty slug. If you need transliteration (ü to ue, ß to ss, or romanised Hindi), do it before pasting.

| Input | any title or phrase |
|---|---|
| Output | lowercase a-z, 0-9 and hyphens |
| Separator | hyphen (spaces become hyphens) |

| Accents / non-Latin | stripped, not transliterated |
| Underscores | removed (words join, no hyphen added) |
| Where it runs | In your browser, as you type |
It strips rather than transliterates. Accented Latin letters (é, ñ, ü) are removed, and text in non-Latin scripts (Cyrillic, Arabic, Chinese, Devanagari) returns an empty slug. For those, transliterate to ASCII before pasting.
An ampersand is removed, not converted to 'and', so 'Q&A tips' becomes qa-tips. If you want the word, type 'and' yourself before generating.
Underscores are stripped and no hyphen replaces them, so the words on either side join: hello_world becomes helloworld. Use spaces or hyphens between words, not underscores.
It does not remove stop words. Short words like a, the and of stay in the slug; trim them yourself if you want a shorter URL.
It does not shorten or truncate. A very long title produces a very long slug; edit it down and front-load the keywords, since shorter, readable slugs are easier to read and share.
Turn a post headline into the slug for its permalink.
Make consistent, readable slugs for catalogue URLs.
Generate a clean id or fragment from a heading.
Create lowercase, hyphenated names that are safe across systems.
Need accents mapped to ASCII (ü to ue, ß to ss) or non-Latin romanised? Transliterate first, then slugify. Want spaces encoded instead of stripped? That is URL encoding, which a URL encoder handles.
Checked against the slug code: it keeps only a-z, 0-9 and hyphens, following Google's hyphen-as-separator advice. Accented and non-Latin characters are dropped, not transliterated, and the page says so.
Fill in your page title, description, keywords and author, and the tool writes a block of HTML head meta tags you can paste, with the title, description, viewport and robots tags included. The block updates as you type.
Generate Open Graph meta tags so your page shows a proper title, description and image when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and more. Fill four fields and copy the block.
Type a title, URL and meta description to see roughly how your page could look in Google, cut to length the way a real result is.
Generate a robots.txt that sets crawler and AI-bot access and points to your sitemap.
Paste your text to get its Flesch Reading Ease score and US grade level, the two classic readability measures, updated as you type.
Compress an image to JPEG with a quality slider and watch the file size drop as you drag, in your browser.
Generate as many as you need at the top of the page. It runs on this device and needs no account.
