    UTF-8 Special Char Finder

    This tool was created to find hidden UTF-8 characters in your text and was inspired by figuring out what LLMs are storing within your text. This tools uses Javascript and does not send any information to our server - so it runs local on your machine is only for you.

    Additionally to showing non-printable Unicode characters the tool allows to remove special characters and copy the cleaned up text directly from the site. It's a one-stop-shop for cleaning LLM output.
