How it works
Paste your text and the tool capitalizes the first letter of each word instantly — no button to press. "Every word" upper-cases the first letter of literally every word, which is what you want for names, product lists and spreadsheet columns. "Title Case" follows the style used for headlines: main words are capitalized while short joining words such as a, of, and and the stay lowercase, except when they are the first or last word of a line or start a new sentence.
"Lowercase the rest" repairs SHOUTED or sTrAnGe text, and "Keep ALL-CAPS words"
protects acronyms like NASA, HTML or PDF from being turned into Nasa, Html or Pdf.
Line breaks, punctuation, numbers, hyphens and apostrophes are all preserved, so
don't becomes Don't and well-known becomes
Well-Known. Everything runs in your browser with JavaScript — your text is never
uploaded, stored or tracked, so it is safe for confidential documents.
Frequently asked questions
How do I capitalize the first letter of each word?
Paste your text into the top box and the capitalized version appears in the result box straight away. "Capitalize every word" upper-cases the first letter of every single word, then the Copy button puts the result on your clipboard.
What is the difference between capitalizing every word and title case?
Capitalizing every word upper-cases the first letter of literally every word, including small ones — "The Lord Of The Rings". Title Case follows headline style and keeps minor words such as a, an, of, and and the lowercase unless they are the first or last word, giving "The Lord of the Rings".
How do I capitalize each word in a sentence that is in ALL CAPS?
Turn off "Keep ALL-CAPS words untouched" and leave "Lowercase the rest of each word" on. SHOUTED TEXT then becomes Shouted Text. Leave the ALL-CAPS option on when your text contains acronyms like NASA, HTML or PDF that must stay as they are.
