How to use the Find & Replace Tool

  1. Paste the text you want to edit into the main box.
  2. Type the word or phrase you want to find, and what you want to replace it with.
  3. Check "Case sensitive" if you need exact-case matching only.
  4. Click "Replace all" to apply the change and see how many replacements were made.

About the Find & Replace Tool

Manually replacing every instance of a word across a long document — a name that changed, a product that got rebranded, a repeated typo — is a task that scales badly by hand. Miss one instance and it's easy to overlook, especially in a document longer than a page or two. A find-and-replace tool exists precisely to make this operation reliable regardless of document length.

This tool scans your entire input for every occurrence of the text in the "Find" field and swaps each one for the text in the "Replace with" field, reporting exactly how many replacements it made so you can confirm the change matches your expectation. The optional case-sensitive toggle controls whether "Apple" and "apple" are treated as the same target — leave it unchecked for a broader replacement that catches every capitalization variant, or check it when you need precision, such as only replacing a capitalized brand name and not the common noun.

It's a staple for writers doing a global correction across a manuscript, developers cleaning up copy-pasted text or config values, students correcting a repeated mistake across an assignment, and anyone editing a document where a term, name, or phrase needs to change everywhere at once. Everything runs locally, so the tool is safe to use even on drafts or documents you haven't shared with anyone yet.

Frequently asked questions

Does this support replacing partial words only, like whole-word matching?+
No, this tool matches any occurrence of the search text, including as part of a longer word — for example, searching "cat" will also match inside "category." Add spaces around your search term if you only want standalone word matches.
What happens if the "Find" field is empty?+
No replacement is made; you'll need to enter text to search for before clicking "Replace all."
Can I do multiple find-and-replace passes on the same text?+
Yes, run one replacement, then enter a new find/replace pair and click "Replace all" again — it will operate on the already-updated result.
Does it replace text inside numbers or symbols too?+
Yes, matching is purely text-based and will match your search string anywhere it appears, regardless of surrounding characters.
