This free find and replace tool swaps a word or phrase for another across your whole text in one click. Paste your text, type what to find and what to replace it with, and every match updates instantly — no signup, nothing uploaded, no waiting. It's the fastest way to do a bulk find & replace without opening a heavier editor.
It works much like find and replace in Word, but online and with no setup. Turn on Case sensitive to match exact capitalisation, Whole word only so 'cat' doesn't change inside 'category', or Use regex for advanced patterns. Whether you came here for a quick find replace online, you're avoiding the find and replace shortcut in Word, or you just need to find and replace text in a long document, this online find and replace tool handles it in seconds.
To find and replace word or text online, paste your writing into the box, type the word you want to find, type what to replace it with, and tap Replace all. Every match changes at once, so you never have to scroll through a long document fixing the same word over and over. It's a simple bulk find & replace that runs instantly in your browser.
For precise control there are three options. Case sensitive matches the exact capitalisation, so 'Apple' and 'apple' are treated separately. Whole word only stops partial matches — replacing 'cat' won't touch 'category' or 'concatenate'. And Use regex lets you find and replace with patterns, which is handy for things like collapsing multiple spaces or swapping formatting. These are the same controls you'd reach for with find and replace in Word, just online and with nothing to install.
People land here for lots of reasons. Some want a quick find replace online instead of remembering the find and replace shortcut in Word (Ctrl+H on Windows, Control+H or the Edit menu on Mac). Others are cleaning text copied from Notepad, a browser, or an email, where a built-in find and replace in Notepad only handles one document at a time. Because this tool works on whatever you paste, it doesn't matter where the text came from.
If you specifically need to find and replace inside a PDF, that's a different job — text in a PDF is laid out page by page, so use the Edit PDF tool for that. For plain text, this find and replace tool is the fast route: paste, replace, copy. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your text never leaves your device — no upload, no signup and no waiting.
Paste your text, type the word to find and the word to replace it with, then tap Replace all. Every match is replaced instantly — free, with no signup, right in your browser.
In Microsoft Word the find and replace keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+H on Windows, and Control+H (or the Edit menu) on Mac. This online tool does the same job without opening Word — just paste your text and replace.
