Word limits show up everywhere — school essays, cover letters, tweets, product descriptions, and SEO titles. This counter updates as you type so you always know exactly where you stand, without ever leaving the page or uploading your text anywhere.
Paste text into Word Counter and read the live result. Nothing is sent to a server for typical use — adjust the input until the output looks right, then copy it.
Start with a short sample to confirm the reading. Large pastes are fine once you trust the output. Use Reset if you want a clean slate.
Whenever possible, Word Counter processes your data locally with JavaScript in this page. That means drafts, secrets, and unfinished work stay on your device by default. Prefer this workflow when you do not want to upload sensitive text, tokens, passwords, or files to a third-party service.

For most FlyUtils tools, no. Processing happens in your browser with JavaScript. If a tool ever needs a server, that will be stated clearly on the page.
