Frequently asked questions

Reading time is calculated by dividing the total word count by 238, the average adult silent reading speed in words per minute. The result is rounded up to the nearest minute. For example, a 1,000-word article would take approximately 5 minutes to read.
The Flesch Reading Ease score measures how easy a text is to read on a scale from 0 to 100. Higher scores mean easier reading. A score of 60-70 is considered standard (8th-9th grade level), while 90-100 is very easy (5th grade level). The formula uses average sentence length and average syllables per word.
Twitter/X has a 280-character limit for standard tweets. This includes all letters, numbers, spaces, and punctuation. Our tool shows you exactly how many characters you have used and color-codes the progress bar green, amber, or red so you know when you are getting close.
Keyword density shows how often each word appears in your text as a percentage of total words. Common words like 'the', 'is', 'and' are filtered out. This helps writers and SEO professionals identify overused words and ensure their target keywords appear at an appropriate frequency, typically 1-3%.
No. All text analysis happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your text is never sent to any server, stored in any database, or shared with anyone. You can even use this tool offline once the page has loaded.
Sentences are counted by splitting the text at sentence-ending punctuation marks: periods, exclamation marks, and question marks. Multiple consecutive punctuation marks (like '...') are treated as a single sentence boundary. Empty segments are excluded from the count.
