Text Analysis Tools
Free, instant, browser-based tools for counting, scoring, and analysing the language in your text.
Understanding text quantitatively is useful across a surprising range of tasks: estimating how long an article will take to read, checking whether a password is genuinely hard to guess, or breaking a cipher by matching letter frequency patterns to known distributions in English. These tools make those measurements instant and private.
The Word Counter handles the most common task — counting words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs — and adds reading and speaking time estimates so you know at a glance how long your content will take to consume. Word Scorer evaluates the entropy and repetition in a word or password without requiring you to paste credentials into a third-party service. Character Frequency maps out exactly which letters appear how often, useful for puzzle solving, cipher analysis, and linguistic research.
All three tools run entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your machine, making them safe to use with unpublished writing, internal documents, or any text you would prefer to keep private.

What is the difference between word count and character count?+
Word count counts sequences of characters separated by whitespace — it measures the volume of prose. Character count counts every individual character including spaces and punctuation, which matters for platforms with character limits (Twitter, SMS, meta descriptions). The Word Counter shows both, along with sentence and paragraph counts.
What does Word Scorer measure?+
Word Scorer evaluates a word, password, or username across three axes: entropy (how unpredictable the character sequence is based on letter frequency in English), repetition (how many consecutive or duplicate characters appear), and vocabulary value (whether the word appears in a common English dictionary). The combined score gives a quick quality signal for passwords and creative names.
What is character frequency analysis used for?+
Character frequency analysis counts how often each letter or symbol appears in a text. It is used in cryptanalysis (identifying substitution ciphers by matching frequency patterns to known language distributions), linguistics research, game design (letter tile scoring in Scrabble is based on frequency), and content analysis. In English, E, T, A, O, and I are consistently the most frequent letters.
Do these tools store or transmit my text?+
No. All analysis — counting, scoring, frequency calculation — runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text is never sent to any server. This makes these tools safe to use with private writing, proprietary content, or sensitive information.
