WordMetric Pro — Word & Character Counter

About

Select any text. Get every stat that matters — instantly.
WordMetric Pro gives you word count, character count, sentence count, paragraph count, reading time, and platform limit checks for 13 platforms the moment you release your mouse — anywhere on the web.

The Problem: Word Counting on the Web Is Broken
You're drafting a LinkedIn post in the browser and need to know if you're under the character limit. You're editing a college essay pasted into a Google Doc alternative and need a precise word count. You're writing ad copy and need to check Google Ads character limits without leaving your tab.
Every existing solution makes you copy your text, open a separate tool, paste it in, and wait. Or it gives you a basic count that chokes on contractions, CJK characters, or hyphenated words. Or it counts characters wrong. Or it just looks terrible.
You need a word counter that works everywhere, counts correctly, and gets out of your way.

The Solution: WordMetric Pro — Precision Text Statistics for the Entire Web
WordMetric Pro is a ground-up reimagination of the word count utility, built with a Unicode-aware tokenizer, real-time floating tooltip, 13-platform limit checker, and session history — all computed instantly in your browser with zero network calls and zero latency.

✨ Why Writers, Editors & Marketers Choose WordMetric Pro
⚡ Instant Floating Tooltip — Stats Appear the Moment You Select
Highlight any text on any webpage and a beautiful floating tooltip appears automatically near your selection showing 6 key stats: words, characters, characters without spaces, sentences, paragraphs, and reading time. No clicking, no shortcuts, no waiting — just select and know.
🔢 7 Precision Statistics — Computed Correctly
WordMetric Pro computes every stat that matters with senior-level accuracy. Words counted via Unicode-aware tokenizer that correctly handles contractions, hyphenated compounds, CJK characters, and RTL text. Sentences detected with abbreviation and ellipsis handling. Reading time calibrated at 238 WPM for digital text. Average word length per token. Character count with and without spaces. Every number you need, computed right.
📏 Platform Limit Checker — 13 Platforms with Live Progress Bars
Check your text against character and word limits for 13 major platforms simultaneously — Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Meta, Google Ads, SEO meta fields, college essay limits, and more. Live progress bars and remaining character counts update in real time as you refine your text. No more manual counting against platform guidelines.
🗂️ Session History — Your Last 5 Counted Texts, Always Accessible
WordMetric Pro remembers your last 5 counted selections. Click any history entry to instantly restore its full stats — perfect for comparing two versions of copy, checking an earlier draft, or resuming where you left off.
📋 One-Click Stats Copy — Formatted and Ready to Share
Copy your full stats block to clipboard in a single click, formatted and ready to paste into a brief, a report, a client document, or a Slack message.
📌 Pin Mode — Keep the Tooltip Open as Long as You Need
Hit the pin button to lock the tooltip open indefinitely. Work through your stats, check platform limits, review history — the tooltip stays put until you dismiss it. Unpinned tooltips auto-close after 6 seconds.
⌨️ Full Keyboard & Context Menu Support
Press Alt+W to trigger stats on your current selection. Press Esc to close the tooltip. Right-click any selection for context menu access to count selected text or the full page. Built for keyboard-driven workflows that never want to leave the home row.
