A little guidance
Understand your text at a glance
Paste a draft, an assignment, or a product description to see its length instantly. This counter treats sequences of letters and numbers as words, including apostrophes and hyphens within a word. Emoji and punctuation alone do not count as words.
The reading estimate assumes 200 words per minute and rounds up to a whole minute. It is a planning aid, not a promise: technical material and unfamiliar vocabulary take longer to read.
