Counts paragraphs by looking for blank lines (one or more empty lines between blocks of text). Matches the behaviour of Word, Google Docs, and most writing apps.
COUNT
The counting runs entirely in JavaScript in your browser tab. As you type or paste text, the counts update synchronously with no network request.
Your text is held only in browser memory. Closing the tab removes it entirely.
For checking reading difficulty alongside word count, try the readability checker. To generate placeholder copy of a target length, use lorem ipsum. For tidying capitalisation as you draft, see the case converter.
