Spoold is a free, privacy-first developer toolbox. Paste into the Magic Box and it detects JSON, HTML, JWT, curl, OpenAPI, CSV, timestamps, and more—then suggests the best tool. You can also browse the full catalog by category. No sign-up is required.

Is Spoold free to use?

Yes. Core tools are free. Heavy work runs in your browser so your payloads are not processed on Spoold servers for formatting, decoding, and similar utilities.

Is my data safe with Spoold?

Tool processing for supported client-side utilities happens in your browser. Encrypted share links are designed so only people with the link can read the payload. Review the Privacy Policy for details on local storage, analytics, support, and third-party services.

Spoold ships 86+ tools including JSON formatter and diff, JSON Schema validation, YAML and TOML converters, HTML and Markdown preview, JWT decode and sign, OpenAPI/Swagger viewer with curl, GraphQL formatter, curl to code and curl compare, certificate viewer, CSV preview, regex tester, Mermaid, code editor, LLM token utilities, QR codes, and many encoding and text utilities.

Yes. Spoold uses optional support and in-layout promotions for its own tools instead of third-party ad placements. You can support development from the Support Spoold page.

Can I use keyboard shortcuts?

Yes. Press Cmd or Ctrl+K to open tool search, use / from the homepage, and use per-tool shortcuts (shown in the UI) such as jj for JSON and hh for HTML where configured.

What it builds

A WhatsApp link is a normal web address that opens a chat with one number. It looks like https://wa.me/14155552671?text=Hello. Shops, support desks, and freelancers put it on a site, a poster, an email signature, or a Google profile so a customer can start the chat without saving the number first.

Why use it

The country code is a chip, so a US 1 and an India 91 are not left to memory.
The card shows +number and the first message before the long URL, so you can check both.
The same link can become a QR code for a counter, a flyer, or a package.

How to use

Pick the country. The chip replaces the country code and keeps the rest of the digits.
Type or paste the number. Spaces, dashes, and a plus are stripped.
Add the first message if you want it waiting in the chat box.
Copy the chat link, open it, or make a QR code.

The number

WhatsApp wants the country code and the subscriber number, nothing else. +1 (415) 555-2671 becomes 14155552671. The finished link allows 8 to 15 digits, which is the length of an international number. The chips cover the US, India, the UK, Brazil, Nigeria, and Germany. For another country, type that code yourself at the start of the field.

The message

Spaces and punctuation are encoded into the link, so a sentence stays a sentence when WhatsApp opens. A very long message makes a very long link. Keep the first line short if the link will be printed or read aloud. Leave the box empty when you only want the chat to open.

Examples

A US shop, with a short greeting:

https://wa.me/14155552671?text=Hi%2C%20I%20saw%20your%20page

An India number, no prefilled message:

https://wa.me/919876543210

QR opens the QR code tool with this chat link already filled in. The code is drawn in the browser. Copy page link copies this form, number and message included, so a teammate can reopen the same draft. Send customers the wa.me address, not the address of this page.

Common mistakes

A local number with no country code. 9876543210 does not open the right chat. Start with 91, 1, 44, or whichever code the phone uses.
A trunk zero. People write 091… for a domestic number. Drop that 0 when you add the country code.
Sending the page link to a customer. That link opens Spoold. The customer needs the wa.me link.
A paragraph in the message. It works, and it also makes a link that wraps badly on a poster. One sentence is enough.

FAQ

Does this open WhatsApp through Spoold?

No. The page only writes a wa.me address. Copy it, open it, or turn it into a QR code. The chat opens in WhatsApp on a phone or desktop.

Do I type the plus sign?

No. Pick a country chip, then type the rest of the number. The chip swaps the country code and keeps the digits after it. The result shows the number with a plus so you can check it.

Can the message be empty?

Yes. An empty message still opens a chat with that number. Add text when you want the first line filled in.

Which link do I send to a customer?

The chat link, the one that starts with wa.me. The page link only reopens this form with the same number and message. Customers do not need that.

Does the QR code upload the number?

No. QR opens the QR tool with the chat link already filled in. The code is drawn in the browser.

What if the number is too short?

The link needs 8 to 15 digits, including the country code. A local number without a country code is rejected until the chip or the digits make it long enough.
