About Word Counter
Word Counter is a free online text analysis tool for checking the size and readability of any draft. Paste an article, assignment, product description, caption, email, script or note, and the tool instantly shows word count, total characters, characters without spaces, sentence count, paragraph count, estimated reading time and estimated speaking time. It is useful for writers, students, editors, marketers, bloggers and anyone preparing content for platforms with length limits. The result is shown in a clean summary so you can quickly decide whether your text is too short, too long or ready to publish. Reading time is estimated from a practical average reading speed, while speaking time helps when preparing scripts, presentations, reels, videos or podcasts.
