☕ Buy on Ko-fi ($5+) 💳 Buy on PayPal View Source →

Built for people who process text at scale

⚡ Batch processing

Split an entire folder of articles in one command. No more pasting one-by-one.

🎯 Same algorithm

Identical semantic splitting as the free web version. Lexical cohesion, not word count.

📁 Clean markdown output

Every input file becomes a separate _topicsplit.md with ### Topic N headings.

🔒 100% offline

No server, no API key, no tracking. Runs on your machine. Your data never leaves.

🎚️ Sensitivity control

Adjust from 0.0 (few segments) to 1.0 (many granular segments). Find your sweet spot.

FAQ

How does payment work?

There's no license key. Buy on Ko-fi or PayPal, then pip install topicsplit-pro. It's honor system. The tool checks nothing — trust.

What if I pay and don't like it?

Email me (find it on the GitHub repo) — I'll refund. This is a human-scale operation, not a SaaS.

Can I use the CLI output commercially?

Yes. MIT license. Use the output however you want. Pay once, use forever.

Why pay-what-you-want?

I want the tool accessible to students and hobbyists, but I also need to eat. $5 minimum keeps the project alive. If you value it more, pay more. If $5 is a stretch, use the free web version.

Is there a team/enterprise plan?

Not yet. If you need custom integration, custom algorithm tweaks, or priority support, email me. I'm open to it.
