Character Counter
This character counter gives you an instant, accurate count of any text you paste or type, covering characters with spaces, characters without spaces, words, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading time. It matters whenever you are working to a strict limit, whether that is a tweet, an Instagram caption, a text message, a headline, or a search engine snippet, because going even one character over can see your content cut off or rejected outright. Type or paste your text into the box, and the six result panels update in real time as you edit, with no need to press a button. Below that, a set of platform trackers compares your live character count against the actual limits for Twitter/X, SMS, YouTube titles, Meta titles and descriptions, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok, with a progress bar and a running tally of characters left or characters over for each one. Buttons let you copy your text, clear the box, or select everything in one click, and a full reference table further down lists the character limits for ten common platforms and formats side by side. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing you type is ever sent to a server or stored. Use it to trim a caption to fit, check a headline before you publish, or simply see how long a piece of writing really is.
