Frequently asked questions
How is reading time calculated?
At 200 words per minute, the average adult reading speed. Speaking time uses 150 words per minute, a typical presentation pace. Both are estimates.
What counts as a word?
Any group of characters separated by spaces. Hyphenated words count as one word; numbers count as words too.
Is my text stored anywhere?
No. The counter runs entirely in your browser — your text is never sent to a server.
