Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the word count?
Our word counter uses advanced algorithms to provide highly accurate counts. It properly handles different types of text formatting, punctuation, and spacing to give you precise word counts that match industry standards used by most word processors.
Can I use this tool offline?
Once the page loads, the word counter works entirely in your browser without requiring an internet connection. All calculations are performed locally on your device, making it perfect for use anywhere, anytime.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is calculated based on the average reading speed of 200-250 words per minute. This standard is widely used in publishing and content creation industries to estimate how long it takes an average reader to consume the content.
Does the tool save my text?
No, the tool does not save or store your text anywhere. All processing happens in real-time within your browser, and your content remains completely private. When you close the browser tab, your text is gone unless you save it yourself.
What’s the difference between characters and characters without spaces?
Characters include all letters, numbers, punctuation, and spaces in your text. Characters without spaces count only the actual letters, numbers, and punctuation marks, excluding all whitespace. This distinction is important for platforms with character limits.
Can I paste formatted text from Word or Google Docs?
Yes, you can paste text from any source including Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or web pages. The tool will automatically strip formatting and count the plain text content accurately, giving you the same results regardless of the source formatting.
Is there a limit to how much text I can analyze?
There’s no artificial limit imposed by our tool. However, very large documents (over 1 million characters) might slow down the real-time counting due to browser performance limitations. For normal use cases, the tool handles any reasonable amount of text efficiently.
