Questions & answers

How accurate is the word count? #

We count words using a Unicode-aware regex that handles contractions, hyphenated words, and non-Latin scripts. Results match what Word, Docs, and LinkedIn show.

Does my text get uploaded anywhere? #

No. Everything happens in your browser. Nothing is sent to our servers — the page works even offline after the first load.

What is the reading time based on? #

Average adult reading speed of 230 words per minute. Speaking time uses 140 wpm, a comfortable presenter pace.

Why a character limit check for Twitter, SMS, LinkedIn, etc.? #

So you can draft in one place and see how your text fits every platform. The live progress bars flip red when you go over the limit.

What does "keyword density" mean? #

The percentage of words in your text that are a specific keyword. SEO writers use this to check they are not over-using a term (typically 1-3% is a healthy range).

Does it count words in Chinese, Japanese, Korean? #

Yes. For languages without spaces, "words" is approximated by grouped character runs — the character count is the more meaningful metric.

Is it free? #

Yes. Completely free. No signup, no credit card, no limits. This tool costs us nothing to run.

Can I use it for academic papers? #

Absolutely. Many students use it to hit word count targets on essays and theses. The paragraph and sentence counts are useful for structure analysis.
