Strip the digits and keep the words

Sometimes numbers are the noise, not the signal: page numbers scattered through copied text, reference numbers cluttering a list of names, digits in an OCR result that should have been letters. This tool removes every number from the text in one click, leaving the words behind, so you get the prose without the figures.

Choose what happens to the gap

Removing a number leaves a hole, and what you want in that hole depends on the text. Sometimes the digit should simply vanish, closing "abc123def" to "abcdef". Sometimes it should become a space, so a numbered list turns into clean phrases rather than run-on words. The option to replace numbers with a space rather than nothing lets you pick the result that reads correctly.

The mirror image of extracting numbers

Where number extraction keeps only the digits, this keeps only the non-digits, and the two together let you split text into its numeric and textual parts. It is handy for cleaning OCR output, anonymising records that carry ID numbers, and preparing text where the numbers are irrelevant. Everything runs in your browser with nothing uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it remove digits inside words?

Yes. Every digit is removed wherever it appears, including inside alphanumeric strings, unless you need otherwise.

What happens to the space where a number was?

You choose: numbers can be removed entirely, closing the gap, or replaced with a space so surrounding words do not run together.

Is this the opposite of extracting numbers?

Yes. Extraction keeps only the digits; this keeps only the non-digit text. Together they split text into numeric and textual parts.

What is it useful for?

Cleaning OCR output, removing scattered page or reference numbers, and preparing text where the figures are irrelevant.

Is my text uploaded?

No. The removal runs entirely in your browser.
