Word Counter

What is a word counter for?

A word counter tells you exactly how long a piece of text is — the number of words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs — the moment you type or paste it in. It's the tool people reach for when they're writing to a limit: an essay with a word minimum, a tweet with a character cap, a meta description that needs to fit, or a cover letter that shouldn't run long. Instead of counting by hand or guessing, you get the real number right away.

To count words in a text, just paste it into the box above. Multio counts everything live as you type, so there's nothing to click and nothing to wait for. It also breaks down characters with and without spaces, which matters for platforms that count characters instead of words, plus sentence and paragraph counts for anyone checking the shape and pacing of their writing. Since everything runs in your browser, your text is never uploaded or stored anywhere — it stays on your device, even while you're mid-edit.
