How Counting Works

Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace; sentences are counted by detecting sentence-ending punctuation (., !, ?). Reading time is estimated using an average adult reading speed of roughly 200-250 words per minute.

Common Uses

  • Checking whether an essay, post, or article meets a word count requirement.
  • Estimating how long a speech or article will take to read aloud.
  • Verifying meta description or title length stays within SEO-friendly limits.
