Count words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs as you type — with estimated reading time and one-tap checks against real platform limits. Whether you're trimming a tweet to 280 characters, fitting a WhatsApp status, or writing a meta description that won't get cut off in Google, paste your text and the counter updates live. Everything runs in your browser; your text is never uploaded.
Check against a limit
0 / 280 characters — 280 left
Standard X (Twitter) posts allow 280 characters.
WhatsApp text statuses display up to about 700 characters. Longer text gets cut off with no warning, so check your status here first. Writing statuses often? The Synapse AI keyboard for WhatsApp can rewrite and shorten your text with one tap.
Standard X posts allow 280 characters — links count as 23 regardless of length. Use the X/Twitter preset above to see exactly how many characters you have left before you post.
Instagram captions technically allow 2,200 characters, but only the first ~125 show in the feed before “more”. Front-load your hook, then use the Instagram preset to stay under the hard cap.
Google truncates meta descriptions around 155–160 characters on desktop (less on mobile). The meta description preset shows when your snippet risks getting cut off in search results.
Words are counted as sequences of characters separated by spaces or line breaks — the same way word processors like Word and Google Docs count them.
The Characters stat counts everything including spaces (this is what platform limits like X/Twitter's 280 use). The No-spaces stat excludes whitespace.
Reading time uses the common baseline of 200 words per minute for silent reading. Speaking pace is slower, around 130 words per minute.
No. Counting happens entirely in your browser — nothing you type or paste is sent to a server.
