How This Tool Works 100% Client-Side
Your data never leaves your device. All processing happens locally in your browser. No text is sent to any server, no data is stored, and no cookies track your usage.
A Unicode combining character (U+0336 - combining long stroke overlay) is inserted after each character. This overlays a line through each glyph when rendered.
- Uses Unicode combining diacritical marks
- Works with any character including letters and numbers
- Rendering depends on font and platform support
How to verify this yourself
Check your browser's Network tab to see nothing is sent:
- Open DevTools: Right-click anywhere on the page → "Inspect" (or press F12)
- Go to Network tab: Click "Network" at the top of the DevTools panel
- Use the tool: Type or paste text and watch the Network tab
- Verify: You'll see no requests to external servers — all processing is local
Works in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Cross-out Effect
This adds a "combining long stroke overlay" (U+0336) character after every letter in your text, creating the visual effect of crossing it out.
