Word & Character Counter

A free online text processing tool that count words, characters, sentences, paragraphs, and estimate reading time. Transform, analyze, and manipulate text instantly in your browser. Content platforms like Medium, Twitter, and academic submission portals enforce strict character and word limits, yet few editors display live counts prominently. Bloggers, students, and SEO copywriters need immediate feedback on document length — including sentences, paragraphs, and reading time — to meet submission requirements without repeatedly opening a full word processor. Live counters update on every keystroke to show word count, character count (with and without spaces), sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading time based on average words-per-minute. Results remain accurate even with mixed CJK and Latin text. Paste or type your text and the counters update live as you type — no button to click. Word count, character count, sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading time all recalculate instantly. All counting happens locally in your browser. Your text never leaves your device, making this safe for drafts, essays, and confidential documents.
