Key Features of Our Word Counter
Our tool offers several advanced features that set it apart from basic word counters:
Frequently Asked Questions
Our word counter uses JavaScript to analyze your text in real-time. It counts words
by splitting text at whitespace boundaries, characters including all visible and
invisible characters, sentences by detecting sentence-ending punctuation, and
paragraphs by identifying blocks of text separated by line breaks.
Reading level estimates the education required to understand your text. We use the
Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level formula, which considers sentence length and word
complexity to determine approximate grade level.
Our keyword density analysis is highly accurate, counting occurrences of each word
and calculating its percentage of the total word count. You can filter results to
show words that appear 1, 2, or 3+ times.
No, our word counter operates entirely in your browser. Your text is never sent to
our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security for your content.
