Every metric that matters
Track words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, lines, unique words and reading time — all updating live as you write. Perfect for essays with limits, meta descriptions, tweets, or SEO copy.
Reading-time estimates
Reading time is calculated at roughly 200 words per minute, a common benchmark for adult reading speed, helping you size blog posts and scripts to your audience's attention span.
No sign-up, no upload
Unlike online editors that store your drafts, this counter keeps everything in the browser tab. Close it and the text is gone — ideal for sensitive or unpublished writing.
How to word counter
- Type or paste your text into the box.
