Count words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs, and reading time for any pasted text. Live as you type. Runs in your browser.
Different tools count words differently, which is why Word, Google Docs, and a third-party counter sometimes disagree on the same text by a few percent.
For practical purposes, the whitespace count is usually within 1-2% of any other method, and the consistency matters more than the precise number. Pick a tool and stick with it for a given project.
The standard estimate is 200-250 words per minute for adult silent readers. This tool uses 225 wpm as the default — the middle of that range.
Reading time matters for blog post UX (“5 min read”), for sizing email content, and for calibrating talk length when reading prepared remarks aloud (~150 wpm spoken pace, slower than reading).
Counting is a regex and a length call. Your text never leaves the tab.
