Remove Numbers
Delete digits from a text so only the words remain. Works for lists, product names, transcripts and exported data.
Your text stays in this browser tab. Nothing is uploaded, saved or logged.
How the Remove Numbers works
By default every digit 0–9 is deleted. That leaves punctuation behind: “Total 1,250.75” becomes “Total ,.”. Turn on “Remove whole numbers” to delete the number together with the thousands separators and decimal marks inside it, so the same text becomes “Total ”.
Number formats recognised inside a number are the comma, full stop, apostrophe (Swiss style 1’250), thin space and non-breaking space between digit groups. Ordinary spaces are never treated as separators, so “10 20” stays as two numbers.
Digits from other writing systems, such as Arabic-Indic ٣, Devanagari ४ or Thai ๓, are only removed when you enable that option. Letters that contain digits, like “A1”, lose the digit and keep the letter.
How to use it
- Paste your text.
- Choose whether to remove whole formatted numbers or only digits.
- Copy the result; double spaces left behind are collapsed for you.

Frequently asked questions
Why are commas and dots left behind?
Because by default only digits are removed. Enable “Remove whole numbers like 1,250.75” to delete the separators inside numbers as well.
Does it remove numbers written as words?
No, “twenty” is a word. Only numeric digits are removed.
Can I remove the numbers at the start of each line, like a list numbering?
This tool removes numbers everywhere. For list numbering you would also want to remove the dot after the number, which Remove Punctuation can do afterwards.
