How this superscript generator works

It swaps each character for its superscript twin in Unicode, the standard every phone and computer uses for text. That makes the result plain text, not formatting, so it keeps its shape when you paste it into an Instagram bio, a username, a chat message or a code comment.

Unicode marks these characters as superscript forms of a normal letter. There are 65 of them for the letters, digits and signs on a keyboard in the widely supported set (Unicode 13.0.0), and this page uses exactly those. When a character has none, the generator says so and keeps it as it is instead of guessing a look-alike.

Exponents mode: x² without touching the rest

Pick Exponents to raise only what follows a letter or a caret: x2 and x^2 both become x², 10^-3 becomes 10⁻³, and the rest of your sentence stays normal. Whole text raises every character that has a superscript form.

Which letters have no superscript

Every lowercase letter has one except q. Capitals are patchier: there is no widely supported superscript C, F, Q, S, X, Y, Z. Tick Use the small letter when a capital is missing to fill those gaps with the lowercase form.

Digits and signs

These are also the small numbers people look for when they want tiny numbers to copy: ⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹ sit at the top of the line, and the lowered set ₀₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉ is on the subscript generator. Type a whole number in the box above with Whole text on to get it in one piece, for example 2026 becomes ²⁰²⁶.

Why ¹²³ look different from ⁴⁵⁶

They come from different parts of Unicode. ¹, ² and ³ are old characters from the Latin-1 set (U+00B9, U+00B2, U+00B3), while ⁴ to ⁹ and ⁰ sit in the Superscripts and Subscripts block (U+2074 onward). Many fonts draw the two groups at slightly different heights, so ¹²³⁴ can look uneven. The letters come from yet other blocks, which is why a superscript word can look a little irregular.

In Word and documents, use formatting instead

For a report or an essay, real formatting looks better and every letter works. In Word, select the text and press Ctrl, Shift and the Plus sign (+) together on Windows; on a Mac, Control, Shift and the Plus sign. The same keys undo it, or press Ctrl and Spacebar (Microsoft support). Use the characters from this page where formatting does not exist: social media, chat, file names and plain text.

Questions

How do I type superscript on a keyboard?

Most keyboards have no superscript keys. Type your text here and copy the result, or in Word select the text and press Ctrl, Shift and the Plus sign (+) on Windows.

Why is there no superscript q?

The widely supported Unicode set has no superscript q. A modifier letter q was added to Unicode only recently and most phones and fonts cannot show it yet, so this page keeps q as it is and tells you.

Does superscript text work on Instagram and TikTok?

Yes. The result is plain Unicode text, so it pastes into bios, captions and display names. How it looks depends on the font of the app.
