What this tool does
This tool shows live statistics for typed or pasted text: word count, characters (with and without spaces), sentences, paragraphs, lines, and an estimated reading time at 200 words per minute.
The numbers update as you type, and you can copy or download the original text. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
How to use it
- Type or paste your text into the box.
- Read the live counts below it as you type.
- Use “Copy” to copy your text back, or download it as a .txt file.
Supported formats
- Input: typed or pasted plain text
- Output: live on-screen counts, plus optional .txt copy/download
Limitations
- Sentence counting splits on . ! ? … and the Bengali danda (।) — abbreviations like “Dr.” may add an extra sentence.
- Reading time is an estimate based on 200 words per minute, not a guarantee.
- Character counts are per character (code point), so Bengali and Hindi text is counted correctly.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work with Bengali and Hindi text?
Yes — counting works for any script. Words are separated by spaces as usual; characters are counted per letter, not per raw byte.
What counts as a sentence?
Text between sentence-ending marks (. ! ? … ।). This is a heuristic — shorthand, abbreviations or decimal numbers can occasionally skew the count.
Is there a word limit?
No hard limit. Very long texts may slow down older phones slightly because counting happens as you type.
