Silviu Anca

I grew up in Moara Vlăsiei, a village just outside Bucharest, and studied mathematics and computer science at the Colegiul Național „I.L. Caragiale” in Bucharest. I got a 10 — the top mark — in mathematics at the Romanian baccalaureate, and went on to study Automatic Control and Computers at the Politehnica University of Bucharest.

It started with tutoring: in high school I helped a few younger students with maths and physics for free, and over the years more than 100 students have worked with me. To turn that into something lasting I founded AXS LEARNING SRL, which today builds education platforms — among them AXS Liceu, used by more than 6,500 students and parents to prepare for the national high-school admission, and Era Lumis, which marks practice exams against the official grading scheme.

Why AXS TXT exists

AXS Tools — AXS TXT and its sister sites — are built on three rules: do the job in your browser wherever that’s possible, so files stay on your device; stay free for everyday use; and say plainly when a file does have to be processed on a server, and what happens to it there.

How we build and test the tools

Every text tool is checked with the inputs that trip simple tools up: Romanian, German and Polish text with diacritics, emoji and flags, CSV exported from Excel with semicolons and quoted commas, JSON with very large numbers, and text pasted from PDFs and web pages with invisible characters.

The core functions have automated checks (for example: Title Case on "școala și țara", UTF-8 binary round-trips with emoji, MD5 against a reference implementation, a real line-by-line diff), and every tool page is opened in a browser to confirm it works.

The limits and behaviours described on each tool page are the ones the tool actually has.
