Palindrome Checker
Instantly check whether text is a palindrome, ignoring spaces, punctuation and case.
About this tool
A palindrome reads the same forward and backward, like 'racecar' or 'A man, a plan, a canal: Panama'. This tool checks any word or phrase, ignoring spaces, punctuation, and capitalization, so you catch true palindromes even with mixed formatting.
How to use it
- Type or paste a word or phrase.
- The result updates automatically as you type.
- See whether it's a palindrome, ignoring spaces, punctuation, and case.
Tips
- Punctuation and spaces are ignored, so phrases like 'Was it a car or a cat I saw?' are correctly detected as palindromes.
- This checks the whole input as one phrase — for checking individual words in a list, check them one at a time.
- Case doesn't matter, so 'Racecar' and 'racecar' are treated the same.
FAQ
Does it work with numbers?
