About this tool

Count words, characters, and lines in text locally. Processing happens locally in your browser, so your input is not sent to a server or included in analytics.

Frequently asked questions

How are words counted?

Runs of letters and numbers are counted as words; a straight or curly apostrophe can remain inside a word.

Are spaces included in the character count?

The output shows both total characters and characters excluding whitespace.

Is my text saved?

No. Counting runs locally in your browser and the page does not store the text.
