FAQ

Common Questions

Is my text sent to a server?
No. All counting and analysis happens in your browser with JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device — safe for private drafts and confidential documents.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time uses an average silent reading speed of about 225 words per minute; speaking time uses about 150 words per minute. Both update live as you type.
How exactly are words counted?
Words are counted as groups of non-whitespace characters, so multiple spaces, tabs and line breaks are ignored. This matches how popular word processors count words.
What is keyword density and why does it matter?
Keyword density is how often each word appears relative to the total word count, shown as a percentage. Writers and SEO specialists use it to make sure a term is emphasised without being over-used.
Can I check character limits for social media?
Yes. Choose a limit template — such as an X/Twitter post (280), an SEO meta title (60) or meta description (160) — or set a custom number. A colour-coded progress bar shows how much of the limit you have used.
