Summary

Local, privacy-first tools from Daniel Short.

Writing & Text

In-browser helpers for editing, cleanup, and quick analysis.

  • Text Compare: Compare two drafts and see insertions, deletions, and replacements highlighted inline.
  • Non-breaking Space Cleaner: Detects hard spaces (NBSP, narrow NBSP, etc.) and replaces them with regular spaces after confirming counts.
  • Oxford Comma Checker: Scan drafts for possible missing Oxford commas in serial lists and review quick fixes.
  • Point of View Checker: Scan text for first-person, second-person, and third-person pronouns to spot mixed POV.
  • Word Frequency Analyzer: Paste text, strip stopwords, and see the most frequent words calculated entirely in-browser.

Marketing

Fast, consistent link-building and shareable assets.

  • UTM Batch Builder: Generate large batches of UTM URLs with normalization helpers, combination modes, per-link copy, and CSV export.
  • QR Code Generator: Create business-grade QR codes with templates, logo embedding, customization controls, and high-resolution exports.

Images & Video

Local image processing utilities and lightweight media capture.

  • Image Optimizer: Batch resize, compress, and convert images (PNG/JPEG/WebP/AVIF) locally with optional responsive widths and “download all”.
  • Background Remover: Remove backgrounds with AI matting (hair/fur friendly), refine edges with a brush, and export transparent PNG/TIFF or solid-background JPEG/WebP.
  • Screen Recorder: Record your screen and download the clip in browser-supported formats with optional system audio.
