Live word, character, sentence and paragraph counts with reading and speaking time — perfect for essays with word limits, social captions with character limits, and scripts with time limits.
Yes — free, no signup, no word limits, and it works entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
Reading time uses the standard 200 words per minute for adults; speaking time uses ~130 words per minute for presentations. Both update live as you type.
Words are counted as whitespace-separated tokens — numbers and punctuation-attached words count as one token each (e.g., '2026' is one word, 'hello,' is one word).
Both: 'Characters (no spaces)' strips all whitespace; 'Characters (with spaces)' is the raw length — useful for social platforms with per-character limits.
