Instant analysis — no submit button.
Anything you paste is analyzed immediately — no button clicks, no waiting. The tool auto-saves your text so it survives a refresh.
Word, character, sentence, and paragraph counts update as you type. Reading time assumes 225 words per minute (silent reading); speaking time assumes 150 wpm (conversational speech).
The keyword density table shows your top 5 most-used words (stop words filtered). The readability card gives a Flesch-Kincaid score with grade-level interpretation.
Everything you need to know
Writers, students, journalists, marketers, and SEO specialists all need to hit specific length targets. Twitter/X caps posts at 280 characters. Academic abstracts are often limited to 150–250 words. Blog posts perform best between 1,500 and 2,500 words. Meta descriptions should be under 160 characters. This tool gives you all the counts you need in real time, without a submit button or page reload.
Medium popularized the 'X min read' label, and now readers expect it everywhere. Reading time sets expectations: a 2-minute read feels approachable; a 15-minute read signals depth. Our formula assumes 225 words per minute — the average silent reading speed of adult native English speakers. For content read aloud (podcasts, video scripts, presentations), 150 wpm is the better benchmark, which is why we show both.
The Flesch Reading Ease formula was developed in 1948 by Rudolf Flesch and refined for the US Navy by J. Peter Kincaid in 1975. It scores text from 0 (unreadable) to 100 (very easy). The formula combines average sentence length and average syllables per word — two reliable proxies for text complexity. For general web content, aim for 60–70 (standard, 8th–9th grade). For technical documentation, 50–60 is acceptable. For marketing copy, 70–80 works well. Scores above 90 feel simplistic; scores below 30 are nearly unreadable without a specialized audience.
Keyword density is the percentage of times a word appears relative to the total word count. Google's algorithm hasn't used raw keyword density as a ranking factor since the mid-2000s, but it remains a useful diagnostic. A density of 1–2% for your target keyword suggests the topic is well-covered. Above 3% often indicates unnatural repetition. Below 0.5% may mean the content isn't clearly focused. The table filters stop words, so what you see reflects content-carrying terms rather than grammatical glue.
