A private text workbench for length, readability, density, and cleanup.
Word Counter has grown beyond a five-number counter into a practical local text workbench. It measures length and pacing, estimates readability, surfaces repeated words, tracks a target length, transforms case, trims text, supports find and replace, and lets you copy or download the result without uploading the text to Toolkit.

FAQ
Does Toolkit store the text I paste?
No. Word Counter processes text in your browser and does not save the text.
Can I clean or transform the text?
Yes. You can normalize whitespace, trim line edges, change case, find and replace, copy the result, or download it as TXT.
Is the readability score definitive?
No. It is an approximate English Flesch reading-ease score and should be treated as a directional editing aid, not a quality grade.
