Word Counter — Free Character & Word Count Tool

Word Counter counts words live as you type and shows the related statistics alongside. It runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded to a server. Free to use, with no signup and no watermark.

How to use Word Counter

  1. Paste or type your text.
  2. Read the counts as they update live.
  3. Copy the statistics if you need them.

Frequently asked questions

How is the count calculated?
Counting runs in your browser on every keystroke, using standard word and character boundary rules.
Is there a length limit?
No hard limit. Very long documents are bounded only by your browser's available memory.
Is my text stored?
No. Your text stays in the browser tab and is discarded when you close it.
