Free Word Counter & Character Counter — No Signup Required
Our Word Counter instantly analyzes your text and gives you word count, character count (with and without spaces), sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading and speaking times. All processing happens in your browser — your text never leaves your device.
How does it work?
Simply paste or type your text in the input area. Stats update in real time as you type — no button to click, no waiting. The reading time estimate uses an average of 238 words per minute, and speaking time uses 150 words per minute.
Is it really free?
Yes. This tool runs entirely in your browser with no server calls. No signup, no limits, no ads. Use it as many times as you want with any amount of text.
Is my text private?
Absolutely. All counting happens locally in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server, making it safe for confidential documents, academic papers, and sensitive content.
Who is this tool for?
Writers, students, bloggers, journalists, marketers, and anyone who needs to track text length. Perfect for meeting word limits on essays, optimizing SEO meta descriptions (under 160 characters), or estimating presentation duration.
