This tool counts words, characters, sentences and paragraphs in any text you paste, updating live as you type or paste content. It also estimates reading time based on an average adult reading speed (roughly 200-250 words per minute), which is useful for gauging how long an article, essay or social post will take a reader to get through.
It's estimated using an average reading speed of roughly 200-250 words per minute for adult readers โ actual reading time varies by individual and content complexity, so treat this as a helpful approximation rather than an exact figure.
Character count typically includes spaces and punctuation as part of the total character count, matching how most word processors and platforms with character limits (like Twitter/X) count characters.
Sentences are detected based on ending punctuation (periods, question marks, exclamation points), and paragraphs are detected based on line breaks in your pasted text โ so formatting your source text with clear breaks will give more accurate paragraph counts.
