Frequently Asked Questions

How is reading time calculated?

Using an average adult reading speed of 200 words per minute, rounded up to the nearest whole minute.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No — counting happens entirely in your browser as you type. Nothing is sent to a server.

Does this count words the same way as Microsoft Word?

Very close — words are split on whitespace, which matches how most word processors count them for standard text.
