Frequently Asked Questions
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is estimated based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute, which is the standard rate for adult readers processing online content.
Does the character count include spaces?
Both counts are provided — total characters (with spaces) and characters without spaces — so you can use whichever is needed for your platform or assignment.
What counts as a sentence?
A sentence is detected by terminal punctuation marks (period, exclamation mark, or question mark). Abbreviations with periods may slightly affect the count.
Can I use this for Twitter/X or Instagram character limits?
Yes. Use the character count to check against platform limits such as 280 characters for X (Twitter) posts or 2,200 characters for Instagram captions.
