FAQ
How is reading time calculated?
Assuming an average reading speed of 200 words per minute: reading time = words ÷ 200. This is a standard estimate used for blogs and articles.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Text is counted entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server, so it's safe for confidential documents too.
How are hyphenated words counted?
Anything separated by a space counts as one word — "state-of-the-art" counts as one word, just like in MS Word.
Is there a character limit?
No limit — you can paste long essays, articles, and even book chapters.
