About this tool: Word Counter

Every count your text needs, live

The Word Counter analyses text as you type or paste it, reporting words, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs, reading time and speaking time in real time. No button to press — the statistics update with every keystroke.

Word and character limits govern modern writing: essays demand minimums, meta descriptions have maximums, social platforms truncate ruthlessly, and translators quote per word. Knowing your exact counts while writing beats discovering them after submission.

The analysis runs entirely in your browser — draft confidential letters, unreleased articles and private notes with the same confidence as any other Piclizer tool. Paste in a chapter or type from scratch; the counts are instant either way.

Like every Piclizer tool, this one runs entirely in your browser — your files stay on your device.
