Text Sorter

About the Text Sorter

Text Sorter rearranges any list of lines by alphabet, length, numeric value or random shuffle, with optional de-duplication built in. Handle word lists, vocabulary drills, CSV exports and glossaries without leaving your browser.

How to use

1. Paste the lines you want sorted, one per line.
2. Pick a mode: A→Z, Z→A, by length, numeric, reverse or shuffle.
3. Tick Remove duplicates if you want only the unique lines, and press Sort.

Benefits & key features

• Numeric mode extracts the leading number of each line — mixed text/number lines sort correctly.
• Case-insensitive toggle ensures "Apple" and "apple" are grouped together.
• Shuffle mode uses cryptographic randomness where available — great for fair raffles.
• Handles thousands of lines instantly without locking the browser.

Pro tip

For glossaries and bibliographies, combine Case-insensitive + Remove duplicates + A→Z to produce a clean, publication-ready index in one click.

Why choose toolsfy for Text & Document tools?

Writing tools on the web typically lean toward either "blog-post-assistant with an AI upsell" or "plain counter with zero insight". toolsfy aims for the middle ground: a collection of sharp, single-purpose text utilities that run inline while you draft, with no usage cap and no sign-up. Because every tool is client-side, you can happily paste confidential paragraphs, leaked transcripts or half-finished blog drafts without second-guessing where they end up.

Common use cases

• Students counting words against strict assignment limits while the essay is still being edited, not after it has been submitted.
• Copywriters A/B-testing two versions of a landing page paragraph and checking whether one reads at a different grade level than the other.
• Journalists cleaning up a pasted transcript — removing line breaks, converting case, stripping extra whitespace — before a Ctrl-F search.
