Slugify Online — URL Slug Generator
Turn any title or label into a URL-safe slug with live preview. Cyrillic transliteration, hyphen or underscore separators, casing, custom max length, and accent stripping — free and browser-local.
How slugify works
Pipeline: trim → Cyrillic (and ß) transliteration → optional diacritic strip (NFD) → non-alphanumeric → separator → collapse → trim edges → casing → max-length truncate on a separator boundary. Live preview updates as you type. CJK and other non-covered scripts are not transliterated — they become separators and may yield an empty slug.
Options
- Separator (- / _)
- Hyphens for typical URL paths; underscores when you need identifier-style slugs.
- Casing (lower / upper / preserve)
- Lowercase is the web default; upper helps constants; preserve keeps original letter case after sanitize.
- Max length (0 = unlimited)
- Enter any limit up to 500 characters. 0 means unlimited. Truncation prefers cutting on a separator so you do not leave a trailing separator.
- Strip diacritics
- On by default — é becomes e via Unicode NFD. Turn off only if you accept ASCII-only sanitize dropping accents.

Slugify FAQ
URL slug questions
Does it transliterate Cyrillic or German ß?
Yes — Cyrillic letters map to Latin approximations (e.g. Привет → privet) and ß becomes ss before ASCII sanitize. CJK and Arabic are not transliterated in v1.
What happens with empty input?
You get an empty slug string.
Is the slug uploaded?
No — conversion stays in your browser.
Why truncate on separators?
Cutting mid-word looks ugly in URLs; preferring a separator keeps the last token whole when possible.
