The actual workflow

Try the real palette

This is the shipped palette, live against the real index. Click a tab to see each shortcut fire, or click into the palette and search yourself — ↵ copies, Ctrl↵ opens details, CtrlK opens actions.

Searches in this demo are sent to asciify.dev and its search processors, like any search on this site.

Built for repeated use

Everything useful stays one keystroke away

Search the way you think

Describe a shape, meaning, or familiar name. You do not need the official Unicode term.

Copy the format you need

Open actions with CtrlK to copy an HTML entity, CSS or JavaScript escape, code point, Unicode name, or case variant.

Keep frequent characters close

Favorites, recent copies, and your preferred emoji skin tone stay available across tabs.

One shortcut across the browser

CtrlShiftK is a browser command, so pages and editors cannot intercept it.

Narrow permissions, clear data flow

The extension runs only after you summon it. Search text goes to asciify.dev for results; favorites and preferences remain in extension storage. Read the privacy policy.

Unicode belongs in your workflow

Search, inspect, format, favorite, and copy without opening another reference tab.
