Word & Letter Counter

Our Word & Letter Counter is a free online text analysis tool that helps you count words, characters, letters, sentences and paragraphs instantly. Beyond basic counting, it also checks keyword density, estimates reading level, converts text case, and can read your writing back to you — all directly in your browser, with nothing sent to a server.

It's built for students, writers, bloggers, content creators, researchers, and anyone who needs to check the length or quality of written content before submitting, publishing, or posting it.

What Does This Word Counter Calculate?

  • Word Count: Counts the words in your text.
  • Character Count: Counts all characters, with and without spaces.
  • Letter Count: Counts alphabetic letters across writing systems (Unicode-aware).
  • Sentence & Paragraph Count: Estimates sentences and paragraphs.
  • Unique Words: Counts distinct words, useful for spotting repetition.
  • Reading Level: Estimates a Flesch-Kincaid grade level for your text.
  • Keyword Density: Shows your most frequent words and their share of the total.
  • Reading & Speaking Time: Estimates how long your text takes to read or say aloud.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a word counter?

A word counter calculates the number of words in a piece of text, along with related statistics such as characters, letters, sentences and keyword frequency.

Does this tool check keyword density?

Yes. The Keyword Density panel lists your most frequent words and what percentage of your total word count each one makes up — useful for SEO writing and avoiding repetition.

Can I convert text case with this tool?

Yes. Use the Sentence case, Title Case, UPPERCASE or lowercase buttons above the text box to reformat your text instantly.

Can I use this tool for Urdu or other languages?

Yes. The letter counter uses Unicode-aware detection and can count letters from many different writing systems.

How is reading level calculated?

Reading level uses a Flesch-Kincaid grade estimate based on average sentence length and syllables per word. It's an approximation, not an exact grammar check.

Does the tool save my text?

Your text is processed entirely in your browser. It is only saved locally on your device (so you don't lose it on refresh) and is never sent to a server or shared with anyone.

Is the word counter free?

Yes, completely free, with no sign-up required.
