Counters & Analysis
Counters and analysis tools measure text length, repetition, patterns, and simple relationships. Use the underlying counting rule when comparing results from different tools.
Choose a tool
Choose a unit before counting
Word Counter tokenizes Unicode letters and numbers with internal apostrophes. Character Counter reports graphemes when segmentation is available, plus code-point and UTF-16 counts, which can differ for accented text or emoji. Sentence Counter relies on punctuation-based boundaries; Paragraph Counter uses blank lines. Line Counter counts physical lines. These are useful estimates, not linguistic annotation.
Estimate time and find repetition
Reading Time Calculator defaults to 200 words per minute and Speaking Time Calculator to 130; both let you change the rate. Word Frequency Counter counts individual normalized words, N-Gram Counter counts adjacent two-to-five-word sequences, and Character Frequency Counter tallies graphemes. The counts can reveal patterns, but they do not judge relevance, quality, or actual human speed.
Inspect or compare text
Text Diff Checker compares lines at matching positions; inserting a line can shift many later results. Palindrome Checker tests symmetry after ignoring case, accents, spacing, and punctuation. Anagram Checker compares normalized character inventories. Find and Replace does case-sensitive literal substitution, while Regex Text Extractor has bounded pattern syntax and match counts. Unicode Inspector lists code points, not official character names. Pick a checker for the exact question and verify edge cases in the source text.
Questions people ask
Why can character counts differ?
Graphemes, Unicode code points, and UTF-16 units count different layers of text.
Does reading time measure a real person?
No; it calculates from word count and an assumed rate.
Is Text Diff Checker a full version-control diff?
No; it compares matching line positions without alignment.
