What it does
WordCountTool.com groups word and character counters with text comparison, word-frequency, reading-time and speech-time utilities.
Paste or type a draft to see word, character and readability totals update, then inspect repeated terms in the keyword view. Reading time assumes 250 words per minute and speaking time 130, so those results are estimates for planning rather than a measurement of your delivery. Its word rules treat hyphenated compounds, contractions, URLs and email addresses as single words. The provider describes counting as browser-local. The counter and writing tools are free without signup.
