About this word counter
This free word counter tallies your text as you type — no button to press, no upload, no sign-up. It counts words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs, and gives an estimated reading time based on an average reading speed of about 200 words per minute.
It's handy for staying within limits on essays, social media posts, meta descriptions, and abstracts, or just to gauge how long a piece will take to read. Because everything runs locally in your browser, your text never leaves your device.
