Count words, characters, sentences and paragraphs instantly — with reading and speaking time estimates.
The Word Counter gives live counts of words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences and paragraphs as you type or paste text, along with estimated reading and speaking time — useful for essays, applications and speeches with word limits.
Reading time is estimated at 200 words per minute, a common average adult silent-reading speed.
Speaking time is estimated at 130 words per minute, a typical average speech delivery rate.
Both — the tool shows character count with spaces and without spaces separately, useful for forms with strict character limits.
No — all counting happens live in your browser, and nothing you type is stored or sent to a server.
