Word & character counter

Runs in your browser · No data sent

Count words, characters, lines, sentences and paragraphs, with reading time.

How to use

Type or paste your text and the counts update live: words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences and paragraphs. It's perfect for staying within limits — tweets, meta descriptions, essays, application forms — or simply tracking how much you've written.

Because it counts as you type, you get instant feedback without clicking anything, and nothing you write is saved or sent anywhere. It works offline and keeps your draft completely private.

Use the character-without-spaces count for strict limits (like some form fields), and the word count for writing targets.

Examples

Stay under a character limit

Check a meta description against the ~155-character sweet spot before publishing.

Hit a word target

Track an essay or article toward a required word count as you write.

Count a social post

Make sure a post fits within a platform's character limit.

Frequently asked questions

Does it count characters with or without spaces?

Both. It shows characters including spaces and excluding spaces, plus words, sentences and paragraphs.

Is my text saved?

No. Counting happens live in your browser and nothing is stored or uploaded, so your writing stays private.

How are words counted?

Words are counted by splitting on whitespace, which matches how most word counters and writing tools work.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Once the page has loaded it runs entirely in your browser with no network needed.
