About This Tool

Remove repeated words from your text

Duplicate words creep into text in several ways: accidental double-typing while editing, speech-to-text stuttering, copy-paste errors, or programming bugs that concatenate the same string twice. This tool quickly removes unwanted repetition.

Two modes are available to suit different needs:

  • Consecutive duplicates: removes only immediately adjacent repeats. "the the cat sat on the mat" → "the cat sat on the mat". The second "the" later in the sentence is kept because it is not consecutive.
  • All duplicate words: keeps only the first occurrence of each unique word across the text. Useful for keyword deduplication or list cleaning.

Common use cases:

  • Transcription cleanup: fix speech-to-text "the the" errors
  • Writing proofreading: catch accidental word repetition during editing
  • Keyword lists: deduplicate tag or keyword lists
  • Data cleaning: remove word-level duplicates from structured text

For removing duplicate lines rather than words, see our Remove Duplicate Lines tool. For removing extra spaces between words, see Remove Extra Spaces.
