What it does

Text copied from AI tools or the web often pastes with fonts and headings you'd never use yourself, especially in email or chat. It immediately looks pasted. Paste text-only fixes the mess, but also removes bold text, lists, and structure, forcing you to rebuild everything by hand. Purifai cleans the text so it fits naturally in the app you're pasting into. It removes weird formatting while keeping paragraphs, lists, and spacing intact. Lightweight App (11MB). Fully offline. No tracking.

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
