Word Counter
Count words, characters, sentences, and reading time — free, live, no sign-up.
What is the Word Counter?
Essays with word limits, posts with character caps, articles with length targets — the Word Counter gives you live stats as you type. Words, characters, sentences, and estimated reading time all update instantly, so you always know exactly where your text stands. No more pasting into a word processor just to check a count.
Writers use it to hit article targets, students to respect assignment limits, social media managers to fit platform constraints, and bloggers to check content length. It also gives you a reading-time estimate at a glance. Everything is computed in your browser as you type — your text is never uploaded — and it's free forever with no account.
