Frequently asked questions
How do I count the number of characters in text?+
Paste your text into the field, and the counters calculate everything automatically. We show characters with and without spaces separately.
Do spaces count as characters?+
Yes, they're counted in the main counter. Right next to it is a separate number without spaces, useful when a limit is defined that way.
How are words counted?+
A word is a run of letters or digits between spaces and punctuation. A hyphen inside a word, like "e-commerce", doesn't split it into two.
Is my text saved anywhere?+
No. Counting happens right in your browser. The text never leaves and is never stored anywhere.
What are the limit badges for?+
A quick check of whether your text fits a post on X, an SMS, or an SEO title. As soon as you go over the limit, the badge turns red.
