Curvioo

About Curvioo

Last reviewed:

Curvioo is a free online tool that turns plain text into cursive, signature, and handwritten styles in a single click. It runs entirely in your browser — your text never leaves the device.

Why we built it

Most "cursive generators" online are buried under ads, popups, and trackers, and many require a signup just to copy a single string. We wanted a version that loads in under a second on a phone, works without an account, and never sees the text you type.

How we picked the 10 styles

The 10 fonts shown on every page are all licensed under the SIL Open Font License via Google Fonts. We filtered the full Google Fonts script and handwriting categories down to fonts that (a) are commercial-use safe, (b) cover Latin-1 so common names render correctly, (c) look meaningfully different from each other, and (d) stay legible at phone sizes. Adding more fonts beyond ten doesn't give users meaningfully more choice — just slower pages.

For the full font list, the exact Unicode mapping used by the copy-paste button, and the known limits of Unicode cursive, see our methodology page.

How the tool works

What this tool will never do

Privacy

We don't have a backend that sees your input. Your text is never sent anywhere — neither for generation, nor for "improvements", nor for logging. The only server-side feature is an optional developer API, which is rate-limited per IP and stores only an anonymous request counter (no input text). See our privacy policy for the full statement.

Maintenance commitment

Curvioo is maintained by a small team. We aim to respond to bug reports within a few business days and to update the methodology page whenever fonts, Unicode mappings, or rendering behavior change. The "Last reviewed" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent human verification of the statements below.
