Structure and length of what you wrote.
Your text at a glance
Reading and speaking times are estimates.
Word Count Kit answers the practical questions about a piece of writing: how long is it, how long does it take to read, how long does it take to say out loud, and how far is it from the target someone set for you.
It does not write, rewrite, expand or complete anything. That is a deliberate limit, not a missing feature — it is what keeps this safe to open next to work you have to submit as your own.
Mode
- WritingWords, characters, sentences, paragraphs and lines, plus average sentence and paragraph length and the words you are repeating most.
- Assignment goalSet a minimum, a maximum or both. See progress, words remaining, words over the ceiling, estimated pages, and whether one paragraph is carrying twice its share.
- PresentationEstimate spoken duration at a slow, normal, fast or custom pace. Enter the length of your slot and see exactly how many words are in the way.
- Short textTrack several character budgets at once against limits you define yourself, with emoji counted the way a reader sees them.
Frequently asked questions
Does my text leave my browser?
No. Every count is computed in JavaScript on your device. There is no upload, no logging and no server-side copy. Open your browser's network panel and type — you will see nothing go out.
Do I need an account?
No. Every feature on this site works without signing in, and there is nothing to sign in to.
Will it help me write my essay?
It will help you measure and plan it. It will not generate text, rewrite your sentences or fill a word count for you, and that will not change.
Are the reading and speaking times exact?
They are estimates. Reading speed varies with the reader and the material; speaking speed varies with nerves and rehearsal. Both rates are adjustable so you can match your own.
