How to Use This Word Counter
Set your assignment's required word count, then paste or type your text into the box. The counter updates live, showing your progress bar, exact word count, and an estimated page count based on standard academic formatting.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the page count estimated?
Page count is estimated using the common academic standard of roughly 275 words per double-spaced page in 12pt font. Your instructor's actual formatting requirements may produce a slightly different page count.
Does this tool save or submit my assignment text?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, saved, or sent anywhere, so you can safely paste in-progress or unpublished work.
Why does my word count differ from Google Docs or Word?
Small differences can happen depending on how each tool treats hyphenated words, numbers, or special characters. This counter splits on whitespace, which matches how most word processors count words.
