Start typing to see statistics.

Count words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, and paragraphs in real time as you type or paste text — the statistics update instantly with no page reload. The tool also reports reading time, average word length, unique word count, lexical diversity, a Flesch readability score, and the top keywords by density, so you can audit content quality at a glance. An Insights panel surfaces headline signals and links directly to the Text Health Report workflow for a deeper readability and tone analysis. Drop in a file (.txt, .md, .json, .csv, .html, .pdf, .docx) to analyze long documents without any text-size limits. Use the character counter to keep SEO title tags under 60 characters and meta descriptions under 160 characters, and check that long-form content meets the 300+ word baseline Google expects for in-depth articles. Everything runs 100% locally in your browser — your text is never uploaded to a server.

Real-time writing analytics for SEO, copywriting, and academic work

Every keystroke updates a live dashboard of words, characters, characters without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and an estimated reading time, so you can hit a precise 1,500-word brief or fit a 60-character title tag on the first try. Beyond raw counts, the tool surfaces average word length, unique words, lexical diversity, a Flesch readability score, and the top keywords in the text — metrics that copywriters and SEO writers use to balance vocabulary and tone. A built-in Insights panel links straight into the Text Health Report workflow for a deeper structural pass when the basic counts look off.

Private, file-aware counting with no size limits

Paste, type, or upload a file — .txt, .md, .json, .csv, .html, .pdf, or .docx — and the entire analysis runs in your browser with no server round-trip and no upload. There is no length cap, so you can drop in a 200,000-word manuscript or a multi-megabyte CSV and the counters stay responsive. Because nothing leaves your device, the tool is safe to use on confidential drafts, internal reports, and unreleased marketing copy.
