About this text tool

This remove text formatting tool strips pasted styling and leaves cleaner readable text for forms, notes, and plain content workflows.

It is useful when copying from web pages, office documents, AI outputs, or CMS editors that inject unwanted formatting.

Use it when you want a quick neutral version of the text before applying your own formatting later.
