About this tool

Title case looks simple until you hit words like “of” and “the”, which should stay lowercase in the middle of a title but be capitalised at the start or end. This converter applies those rules for you, following the familiar AP and Chicago style.

Paste a headline or heading and it returns a clean, correctly capitalised title, ready to copy. It handles multiple lines at once, so you can convert a whole list of titles. Everything runs in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

Which words stay lowercase?

Short conjunctions, articles and prepositions such as “a”, “an”, “the”, “of”, “and” and “to” — unless they are the first or last word.

Does it follow a style guide?

It uses the common AP and Chicago convention of capitalising major words and lowercasing minor ones, a sensible default for most headlines.
