Count words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs instantly. Free online text analysis tool with reading time estimate.
The Word Counter tool analyzes your text to provide comprehensive statistics including word count, character count (with and without spaces), sentence count, paragraph count, and estimated reading time. This is essential for writers, students, and content creators who need to meet specific word counts.
Words = Text.split(/\s+/).lengthThe tool splits text by whitespace to count words, counts all characters including spaces for total characters, and subtracts spaces for character count without spaces. Sentences are detected by terminal punctuation (.!?), and paragraphs by double line breaks.
