Acronym generator

Paste any text and each line turns into an acronym built from the first letter of every word: "North Atlantic Treaty Organization" becomes NATO, "frequently asked questions" becomes FAQ. Use it to shorten long names of organizations, projects, teams or documents, to invent a memorable initialism for a product, or to build mnemonic study aids where a whole sentence compresses into a handful of letters.

The case selector controls the result: UPPERCASE is the default, lowercase gives you compact tags, and keep original preserves the capitalization of the source words. Turn on "Add periods" for the classic N.A.S.A. style, or type anything into the separator field to join the letters with spaces, dashes or dots. "Skip short words" drops common filler such as "the", "of" and "and", so "The United States of America" yields USA instead of TUSOA — and it only applies when a line has more than two words, so short titles keep all their letters.

The tool is Unicode-aware. Accented letters survive and uppercase correctly — "Úrad vlády" becomes ÚV — and hyphenated words contribute one letter per part, so "well-known" turns into WK. Paste hundreds of lines at once: every line is processed independently and the acronyms come back line by line, in the same order. The tally under the output counts lines, incoming words and the letters produced.

Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing you type is uploaded or logged, so internal project names, unreleased product titles and confidential documents are safe here. Copy the result with one click, download it as a .txt file, or send it straight to another tool to keep working.

FAQ

How are hyphenated words handled?
Each hyphen-separated part contributes one letter, so "well-known" produces WK and "state-of-the-art" produces SOTA.
Which words does "Skip short words" leave out?
Common English words of up to three letters — a, an, the, of, and, or, in, on, at, to, by, for and similar. The option only applies when a line has more than two words, so a short title like "The End" still becomes TE.
Does it work with accented letters?
Yes. First letters are picked with full Unicode support and uppercase correctly, so "Úrad vlády" becomes ÚV and "Łódź" keeps its Ł.
How do I get the N.A.S.A. style with periods?
Turn on "Add periods" and every letter is followed by a period. Add a space in the separator field to get "N. A. S. A." instead.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser and your text never leaves your device.
