Paste your text, add as many find-and-replace rules as you like, and apply them all together in a single pass. Choose whole-word or case-insensitive matching.

How to replace multiple words at once

  1. Paste your text into the box.
  2. Add one or more find / replace rules.
  3. Toggle whole-word or case-insensitive matching if needed.
  4. Copy the result.

Examples

Swap several terms together

The cat sat on the mat.
The dog lay on the rug.

Frequently asked questions

Are the rules applied at the same time?

Yes. All rules run in one left-to-right pass, so a word produced by one rule is never re-replaced by a later rule. Swapping a to b and b to c will not turn your a into c.

What does whole-word matching do?

It only replaces a term when it stands alone as a word. With it on, replacing cat will not touch the cat inside category.

Do special characters in the search term work?

Yes. Search terms are matched literally, so you can find things like C++, $5.00 or (note) without escaping anything.

If two rules overlap, which wins?

The longer search term wins at each position. If both foo and foobar could match, foobar is used.

Is my text private?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
