Frequently Asked Questions

Does the word counter work offline?▼
Yes. After the page loads, the tool runs entirely in your browser and requires no internet connection to count words or characters.
How is reading time calculated?▼
Reading time is estimated based on an average adult reading speed of 200 words per minute. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute.
Is there a word or character limit?▼
No limit. You can paste articles, essays, books, or any amount of text — the counter handles it all instantly.
Does it count characters with or without spaces?▼
Both. The word counter shows character counts with spaces and without spaces as separate values.
What qualifies as a word?▼
Any continuous sequence of non-whitespace characters separated by spaces, tabs, or newlines counts as one word.
