Count words, characters with and without spaces, sentences and paragraphs in real time, plus reading and speaking time estimates and keyword density.
The Word Counter tracks words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences and paragraphs as you type or paste text, updating the counts live. It also estimates reading and speaking time, and can show keyword density — how often specific words repeat relative to the total text length.
This makes it useful well beyond simple word counting: checking an essay word count against a strict limit, gauging speaking time for a presentation script, or spotting keyword overuse before publishing an article. Everything updates instantly in the browser with no need to submit text anywhere.
Words, characters with and without spaces, sentences and paragraphs are all shown together rather than needing separate tools for each.
Two separate time estimates are given, since silent reading speed and spoken presentation pace are quite different.
Seeing which words repeat most often helps catch accidental overuse before publishing or submitting a piece of writing.
Every figure recalculates instantly as text changes, with no button to click or page to refresh.
Reading time is calculated from an average silent reading speed of about 225 words per minute, while speaking time uses roughly 130 words per minute, closer to a comfortable presentation pace. Both are estimates and vary with content complexity and audience.
Both figures are shown because platforms differ in what they count: X (Twitter) counts spaces towards its character limit, while many form fields and meta description limits count only visible characters, so having both numbers avoids guesswork.
Word processors like Word or Google Docs show similar counts, but this tool adds keyword density and separate speaking-time estimates that most word processors don't include, useful specifically for writers preparing spoken content.
When a word limit is strict, paste your final draft here rather than relying on a word processor's count, since counting rules for hyphenated words and numbers can occasionally differ between tools.
