Questions and answers
What is Word & Character Counter?
A word and character counter measures text length against limits for essays, meta descriptions or social posts. This one counts words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, lines and unique words, estimates reading time at 238 words per minute, and lists the top 10 words minus stop words.
How accurate is the reading time estimate?
The reading time is based on an average adult reading speed of 238 words per minute. It is a reasonable estimate for most text types. Speaking time uses an average of 900 characters per minute.
Does it send my text to a server?
No. All counting and analysis happens entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
What does 'Unique Words' mean?
Unique Words counts how many distinct words appear in your text (case-insensitive, punctuation stripped). A lower unique-word count relative to total words indicates more repetitive text.
