Word Counter
Real-time text analysis: words, characters, sentences, paragraphs, reading and speaking time. Twitter, SMS and Telegram limits are shown.
Word Counter — when do you need it?
When you write text — a work document, a Telegram post, a blog entry or a tweet on Twitter (X) — it matters to know its length. The Word Counter keeps count in real time as you type: how many words, characters, sentences. Nothing is sent anywhere — it all stays in your browser.
Platform limits
- Twitter (X) — 280 characters for a single tweet
- SMS — 160 characters (Latin) or 70 characters (Cyrillic)
- Instagram bio — 150 characters
- Instagram caption — 2200 characters
- Telegram caption — 1024 characters (for photo/video)
- Meta description — 160 characters (Google search result)
- YouTube description — 5000 characters
For writers and students
An essay, a research paper, a coursework — each has an exact word or character requirement. Universities often set "5000 words" or "30 pages". The Word Counter shows you instantly when your text reaches that limit.
Reading and speaking time
An average person reads ~220 words per minute and speaks ~130 words per minute. If you are preparing a speech, a podcast or video content — see in advance how many minutes it will take.
Frequently asked questions
Where is my text sent?
Nowhere. The analysis happens entirely in your browser — with JavaScript. Once you close the page, the text disappears too.
How is the Uzbek language handled?
Both the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets are supported. The Uzbek apostrophe ('), Cyrillic letters (ў, ғ, қ, ҳ) are counted correctly. Only words separated by spaces are taken into account.
How are sentences counted?
Every completed fragment that ends with a period (.), question mark (?) or exclamation mark (!). Several dots in a row (...) count as one sentence.
What are "no spaces" characters?
Only letters, digits and symbols — without counting "invisible" characters like spaces, line breaks and tabs. Platforms like SMS or Twitter often use exactly this count.
Why is the "longest word" shown?
The single longest word in your text. Useful for editorial work or for SEO — long words make text harder to read.
How is reading time calculated?
Number of words / 220. This is an average speed — slower for beginners (~150), faster for experienced readers (~300+).
