What this tool does
Deduplicate newline-separated lists such as keywords, URLs, usernames, IDs or inventory labels. You can choose case-sensitive or case-insensitive matching and optionally trim whitespace before comparison.
Deduplication is simple until small differences such as capitalization or trailing spaces make identical-looking entries behave as different values. This tool lets you control those decisions explicitly and reports how many lines were removed.
Useful for
- Clean keyword or hashtag lists.
- Remove repeated URLs before batch processing.
- Deduplicate copied IDs, names or labels while preserving order.
How to use it
- Paste one item per line.
- Choose whether matching should ignore capitalization and surrounding spaces.
- Run the deduplicator.
- Review the removed-count summary and copy the cleaned list.
Practical tips
- Use case-sensitive matching when capitalization carries meaning.
- Trimming whitespace is helpful for human-entered lists.
- For structured CSV data, use a spreadsheet or database tool instead of treating whole rows as plain text.
- Nothing is uploaded to ToolsDiary.
