This free text analyzer breaks down any text you paste: word and character counts, sentence and paragraph counts, average sentence length, estimated reading time and readability. It is useful for writers, students and editors who want to gauge how clear and digestible their writing is before publishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the text analyzer measure?

It reports word count, character count, sentence and paragraph counts, average words per sentence, estimated reading time, and a readability indication so you can see how complex your text is at a glance.

What is readability and why does it matter?

Readability estimates how easy your text is to understand, usually based on sentence length and word complexity. Clearer writing keeps readers engaged and is easier to skim, which matters for web content and SEO.

How is reading time calculated?

Reading time is estimated from the word count divided by an average reading speed (around 200 to 250 words per minute). It gives a quick sense of how long a piece will take a typical reader.

Is the text analyzer free and private?

Yes. It is free with no sign-up and runs in your browser, so your text is never uploaded or stored.
