FAQ
How is reading time calculated?
We use an average reading speed of about 200 words per minute, the standard used by most writing tools.
What counts as a word?
Any run of characters separated by spaces, tabs or line breaks counts as one word.
Is my text saved anywhere?
No. Counting happens in your browser and your text disappears when you close the page.
