Word Counter for marketers
For marketers, Word Counter fills a gap most marketers run into daily: a small text task that doesn't justify opening a heavyweight editor, but that doing by hand is error-prone. Open the page, paste, do the thing, paste back.
Common marketers workflows
- Quick checks before sending — counts, capitalization, formatting
- Cleanup of pasted-in content from another source (Word, Slack, web pages)
- Format conversion to fit a target medium with strict character limits
Open the tool
Browser-only. Nothing is sent to a server.
Frequently asked questions
Can I trust the count for assignment / SEO purposes?
Word Counter matches the published Unicode standard. Cross-check against the tool of record (Word, your CMS) if that's what's being graded against.
Does Word Counter save my text?
No. Word Counter processes everything in your browser; nothing is uploaded or stored.
Will Word Counter work offline?
Yes — once the page loads, processing happens locally with no further network calls.
Is there a length limit?
Practically, several MB of text. Beyond that the browser starts to lag.
