Your text is counted entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing you type or paste is uploaded, stored or seen by anyone — close the tab and it's gone.
Essays, university assignments, cover letters, abstracts, meta descriptions, tweets — paste your draft and instantly see whether you're under or over the limit.
Reading time uses an average silent-reading pace of 225 words per minute; speaking time uses a typical presentation pace of 130 wpm — handy for speeches and video scripts.
See which words you use most (common words like "the" and "and" are filtered out). Great for spotting repetition in your writing and checking SEO keyword balance.
Any run of characters separated by spaces or line breaks counts as one word — the same method used by most word processors, so counts closely match Word and Google Docs.
No sign-up, no word cap, no premium tier. Paste a 100,000-word manuscript if you like — it counts instantly because it never has to travel to a server.
