Extract numbers from text
Paste any text: the tool fishes out every number — including decimals written with a period or a comma — and instantly gives you the list, the sum, and the average.
Periods, commas, and thousands: how numbers are read
The tool recognizes integers, negative values, and decimals written both US-style (3.14) and European-style (3,14). It also handles thousands separators: 1,234.56 is read correctly as one thousand two hundred thirty-four and change, because when both separators appear, the last one is treated as the decimal point. One case is ambiguous by nature: a standalone value like 1,234 could be a thousand or a European decimal — here it is treated as a decimal, so if your text uses commas only as thousands separators, double-check the sum before relying on it.
Sum and average without opening a spreadsheet
It's the fastest way to total amounts scattered through a message, an email, or a receipt pasted from a PDF: no columns to build in Excel, no calculator. It also comes in handy for averaging grades on a transcript, adding up shared expenses in a group chat, or quickly checking that the totals on a quote add up — say, line items of $19.99, $45.50, and $12 summed in a second. The extracted list, one number per line, pastes straight into a spreadsheet if you want to keep working on it.
