Counting method and privacy

Chinese characters contribute to the word estimate, while English words are separated by whitespace. Analysis happens in your browser and does not upload your text.

Frequently asked questions

How is Chinese text counted?

Chinese characters contribute to the word estimate and are also reflected in the separate character, sentence, and paragraph counts.

How is reading time estimated?

The tool estimates reading time from the current word estimate. It is useful for a quick length check, not as a replacement for reader testing.

Is my text uploaded or saved?

No. Counting happens in your current browser and the text is not sent to a server.
