About Us

TextForge is a collection of free online tools for counting, cleaning, converting and formatting text. It is built and run by MapleNyx Consulting Partners Ltd., a consulting company based in Ontario, Canada.

Why we built TextForge

Our team works with text every day: writing documentation, cleaning data exports, preparing content for websites and debugging APIs. We kept reaching for small online utilities to count words, remove duplicate lines or decode a Base64 string. Many of those sites were cluttered, slow, or uploaded whatever we pasted to their servers, which is not acceptable when the text contains client data.

So we built the tools we wanted to use: fast, clearly explained and private by design.

How the tools work

Every tool on TextForge runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. When you paste text and click a button, the processing happens on your own device. Your text is not sent to our servers, and we do not store it or see it. You can check this yourself: once a tool page has loaded, the tool keeps working even if you disconnect from the internet.

We test each tool against real-world input, including accented letters, emoji and different line endings, and every tool page includes a worked example produced by the same code that runs in your browser.

Our guides

Alongside the tools, we publish guides that explain the formats and techniques behind them, such as Base64, URL encoding and JSON. The guides are written and reviewed by our team, based on the relevant technical standards and our own practical experience. We update them when standards or platform rules change, and each guide shows the date it was last updated.

How TextForge is funded

TextForge is free to use and does not require an account. To cover hosting and development costs, the site displays advertising provided by Google AdSense. Ads are supplied by Google and are marked as advertisements. You can read how advertising partners use cookies in our Privacy Policy.
