Slugify
Make URL-safe slugs from any text.
About this tool
Turn a title or sentence into a clean URL-friendly slug - lowercased, hyphen-separated, with diacritics stripped (café → cafe) and special characters removed. The right tool for blog post URLs, product page slugs, file names, and anywhere you need a safe ASCII identifier from arbitrary text.
Privvert is Unicode-aware: it transliterates non-Latin characters (Cyrillic, Greek) when a Latin equivalent exists, and strips characters that don't have one. Pick your separator (hyphen, underscore, dot) and an optional max length. Runs in your browser.

Frequently asked questions
Cyrillic and Greek are romanised when a transliteration is available (Москва → moskva). Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters are stripped - those scripts don't have a single canonical Latin form, so use Pinyin or Romaji upstream if you need them.
Search engines treat hyphens as word separators in URLs (so 'my-blog-post' is read as three words), while underscores connect words. Hyphens are the SEO standard.
Privvert lowercases by default because URLs are case-sensitive and uppercase variants cause duplicate-content issues. Most CMSs require lowercase slugs.
Set a max length (e.g. 60 characters) and Privvert will cut at the last whole word that fits, avoiding ugly mid-word truncation.
