#spelling

NATO phonetic alphabet conversion as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The spell endpoint turns any text into the international radiotelephony spelling alphabet used by aviation, the military, emergency services and call centres — letters become Alfa, Bravo, Charlie and so on (case-insensitive), digits use the ICAO forms (Niner for nine), spaces are marked, and unknown characters pass through — so SOS becomes “Sierra Oscar Sierra” and ABC123 becomes “Alfa Bravo Charlie One Two Three”. The decode endpoint reverses it, turning a string of phonetic words back into the original characters and accepting common spelling variants (Alpha or Alfa, X-ray or Xray, Juliet or Juliett, Nine or Niner), flagging any words it does not recognise. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for aviation, radio, telecom, call-centre, customer-support, accessibility and voice app developers, spelling-out and read-back tools, and IVR systems. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 2 endpoints. This is the NATO/ICAO spelling alphabet; for Morse code use a Morse API.

Catch spelling mistakes in six languages — English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Dutch — and get English style and grammar suggestions in one call. Spelling errors come with their position in the text and a ranked list of corrections; style suggestions flag repeated words, weasel words, passive voice, wordiness, clichés and more. A combined check returns spelling and style together (sorted by position), a spelling-only endpoint covers all six languages, a single-word endpoint returns corrections for one word, and a languages endpoint lists what is supported. Every endpoint takes text via the query string or the request body and returns lean JSON. Pure server-side computation (Hunspell dictionaries + write-good, no third-party upstream, no LLM cost), so responses are instant and always available. Ideal for editors and CMSs, form and comment validation, chat and email tools, and writing assistants.
