Frequently Asked Questions
How is word count and reading time calculated?
Word count is calculated by parsing word boundaries across alphanumeric sequences. Reading time is estimated based on the standard average reading speed of 200 words per minute (WPM), while speaking time uses 130 WPM.
Is my text stored or uploaded to any server?
Never. ToolOut runs completely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. None of your writing, essays, or confidential business documents are ever transmitted over the network.
Check a draft's length and speaking time
- Paste your draft or load a plain-text file. Word and character counts update as you edit.
- Use the character totals to check a length limit. Whitespace separates words; punctuation-only tokens are excluded. Languages without spaces need a language-specific counter.
- Review repeated terms, then copy or download your revised text. Keyword frequency excludes common English stop words; it is not an SEO ranking score.
Try this example
Hello world! has 2 words, 12 characters including spaces and 11 without spaces. Reading time uses 200 words per minute and speaking time uses 130, rounded up to whole minutes. A 400-word draft therefore shows 2 minutes of reading and 4 minutes of speaking.
Privacy and limitations
Text is processed in the browser. Reading and speaking times are estimates, not measurements of a particular person. Sentence splitting is approximate around abbreviations; each non-empty line counts as a paragraph. JavaScript character counts can count an emoji as more than one unit.
