What does this word counter measure?
Paste or type any text and get an instant breakdown: words, unique words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs and syllables, plus estimated reading time (200 words per minute) and speaking time (130 words per minute). A word-density table shows your ten most repeated words — useful for spotting overused terms.
Who is it for?
- Writers and students keeping essays, articles or assignments within a word limit.
- SEO and content teams checking article length and keyword repetition.
- Speakers timing a talk or presentation from a script.
How to use it
- Type or paste text into the box — stats update live as you type.
- Or drop a text file onto the uploader to analyze its contents.
- Check the density table to see which words you lean on most.
