About Word counter

The Word Counter gives you a complete snapshot of your text — total words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading time based on an average adult reading speed of 200 words per minute. It's useful for blog posts, academic essays, social media copy, and any writing that has a target length. Everything updates live as you type, so you never have to stop mid-draft to count manually.
