Word Counter
Count words, characters, sentences and paragraphs live as you type, with reading and speaking time estimates.

Writing an essay with a strict word limit, a meta description capped at 160 characters, or a speech that must fit into five minutes? Counting by hand is hopeless, and pasting confidential text into a random website is a risk you should not have to take.
This word counter analyzes your text live as you type or paste: words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs and non-empty lines are updated instantly with every keystroke. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded, so contracts, drafts and personal notes stay on your device.
Word detection is Unicode-aware, so it works equally well for English, Ukrainian, German or any mixed-language text, and words with apostrophes or hyphens like "don't" and "e-mail" are counted as single words. Sentence and paragraph counts follow real punctuation and blank-line structure rather than naive guesses.
On top of the raw counts you get two practical estimates: reading time at a typical 200 words per minute and speaking time at a presentation pace of 130 words per minute — handy for blog posts, video scripts, toasts and conference talks alike.
