Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tool define a 'word'?
A word is any sequence of characters separated by whitespace. Hyphenated words like 'well-known' are counted as one word.
Can I use this to check my text meets a word limit?
Yes. The live word count updates with every keystroke, so you can paste or type your text and instantly see whether you are within or over the limit.
Is my text stored or sent anywhere?
No. The counter runs entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your device and is not stored or transmitted.
