Remove accents from text

Remove accents is a free tool that runs entirely in your browser, with no data ever sent to a server. Strip the accents from a text, for a plain ASCII result.

What it's for

Generating an identifier, a filename or a URL from an accented title : "Café de Paris" becomes "Cafe de Paris", safer for systems that don't handle Unicode well.

What this tool does not do

This tool only applies the transformation described above, with no spelling correction and no understanding of the text's meaning. A text of tens of thousands of lines is processed instantly ; beyond that, the only limit is your device's memory.

Frequently asked questions

Does the result stay correctly spelled?

No : removing accents changes the text's spelling. Save this tool for technical cases, not for text meant to be read as-is.

Is my data sent to a server?

No : the text you type or paste is processed entirely in your browser, on your device. It is never transmitted to a server.

Do I need to create an account or install anything?

No : the tool works directly on this page, with no sign-up and no install.
