What it does
WordCountTools reports word and character totals, syllables, sentences, paragraphs, words occurring once and keyword density.
Input text for word and character totals, including characters with and without spaces. Here Unique Words means words occurring exactly once, rather than every distinct word in the passage. Spaces, hyphens and punctuation separate words. Keyword density can show one-, two- or three-word phrases and exclude grammar words. Syllables use approximate vowel-pattern rules, and readability is an estimate. The site describes browser autosave so you can return to a draft later.
