Cleanor Labs
These sections explain the job in plain language and set expectations for what the tool should do well.
To clean smart quotes, paste text copied from Word, Google Docs, or a web page, and the tool rewrites the typographic punctuation as plain ASCII in your browser. Curly quotes become straight quotes, fancy dashes become hyphens, and the single ellipsis glyph becomes three periods.
This matters because smart punctuation often breaks code, JSON, CSV imports, and command-line input where only straight quotes and plain hyphens are valid. Cleaning the text first prevents subtle syntax errors that are hard to spot.
Smart Quotes Cleaner handles visible typographic punctuation that you can see and read, such as curly quotes, dashes, and ellipses. It is the right tool when copy looks fine but breaks in a code editor or import.
Unicode Cleaner, by contrast, targets invisible trouble characters like zero-width spaces and normalization issues you cannot see. Use this tool for punctuation cleanup and Unicode Cleaner when text behaves oddly for no visible reason.
Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.
Yes. It is free and runs entirely in your browser, with no account required.
No. The cleanup happens locally in your browser, so your text never leaves your device.
Yes. Converting curly single and double quotes to straight ASCII quotes is the core behavior.
Yes. En and em dashes become hyphens and the single ellipsis character becomes three dots.
Use this for visible typographic punctuation; use Unicode Cleaner for invisible characters like zero-width spaces and normalization issues.
