Free online text analyzer, word counter, and writing assistant. Beyond simple word counts, this tool offers advanced readability metrics (Gunning Fog, SMOG, ARI), detailed writing style analysis (passive voice, adverbs), and powerful text formatting tools. Perfect for writers, students, SEO professionals, content creators, and bloggers looking to polish their content to perfection.

How to Use Text Analyzer

Check Text Statistics

Paste your text into the input box to instantly see the total word count, character count (with and without spaces), sentence count, paragraph count, and letter count. The tool updates in real-time as you type or edit.

Deep Dive into Readability

Go beyond basic scores. Switch to the "Readability" tab to check the Gunning Fog Index, Coleman-Liau Index, SMOG Index, and Automated Readability Index (ARI). These metrics give you a comprehensive view of your text's complexity across different grade levels.

Analyze Writing Style

Use the "Writing" tab to audit your content for common issues. Detect overused adverbs, identify passive voice usage, and check your vocabulary richness (unique words). Use these insights to make your writing more direct and engaging.

Optimize for SEO

In the "SEO" tab, analyze your keyword usage with the "Top Keywords" list and N-gram analysis (2-word and 3-word phrases). Ensure your target keywords are present without stuffing, and discover recurring phrases that define your content's topic.

Format and Clean Text

Use the "Formatting Tools" toolbar to instantly clean up your text. Remove extra whitespace, deduplicate lines, sort lists alphabetically (A-Z or Z-A), convert case, or even reverse text with a single click.

Count Words for Essays & Assignments

Students can use this tool to ensure their essays meet strict word count requirements. It filters out empty spaces and lines to give an accurate word count for academic submissions.

Check Character Limits for Social Media

Writing a tweet or an Instagram bio? Use the character counter to keep your text within the limits (e.g., 280 characters for Twitter/X). The emoji counter helps you track visual elements in your posts.

Estimate Reading & Speaking Time

Planning a speech or a video script? The reading time calculator estimates how long it will take to read your text aloud (at 150 WPM) or silently (at 225 WPM).

Common Calculations & Examples

Example 1: Improving SEO Content

Problem: A writer needs to ensure their article targets "digital marketing" without overusing it.

Steps:

  1. Paste the draft article into the text analyzer.
  2. Check the "SEO" tab for "Top Keywords".
  3. Verify "digital" and "marketing" appear in the top list.
  4. Check the Bi-grams for "digital marketing" frequency.
  5. Ensure the density is natural (1-3%).
Result: An optimized article that ranks well without triggering spam filters.

Explanation: Phrase analysis (N-grams) helps confirm you are targeting the right topics, not just single words.

Example 2: Simplifying Technical Writing

Problem: Making a technical manual accessible to beginners.

Steps:

  1. Input the technical text.
  2. Check the "Readability" tab.
  3. If Gunning Fog or SMOG scores are >12, the text is too complex.
  4. Identify long sentences and words with high syllable counts.
  5. Simplify until scores drop to 8-10.
Result: A manual that is easier to follow and reduces user frustration.

Explanation: Multiple readability metrics provide a more robust assessment of text difficulty than just one.

Example 3: Cleaning Up a Data List

Problem: A user has a messy list of names with duplicates and extra spaces.

Steps:

  1. Paste the list into the tool.
  2. Click "Clean Space" to remove extra whitespace.
  3. Click "Dedup Lines" to remove duplicate entries.
  4. Click "Sort A-Z" to alphabetize the list.
Result: A clean, sorted, unique list of names ready for use.

Explanation: Formatting tools turn the text analyzer into a powerful data cleaning utility.

Example 4: Auditing a Blog Post

Problem: A blogger feels their writing is too "weak" or passive.

Steps:

  1. Paste the blog post.
  2. Check the "Writing" tab.
  3. Look at the Passive Voice and Adverb counts.
  4. If counts are high (red/orange indicators), rewrite sentences to be active.
Result: A punchy, authoritative blog post that engages readers.

Explanation: reducing passive voice and adverbs makes writing stronger and more direct.

Example 5: Checking Social Media Limits

Problem: Fitting a message into a Tweet (280 chars).

Steps:

  1. Type the message.
  2. Check the "Characters" count.
  3. Use the Emoji counter to see how many icons you used.
  4. Edit until the count is <= 280.
Result: A perfect tweet that maximizes the character limit without going over.

Explanation: Real-time character counting prevents posting errors.

Example 6: Preparing a Speech

Problem: Ensuring a speech fits within a 5-minute slot.

Steps:

  1. Paste the speech text.
  2. Check "Speaking Time" in the General stats.
  3. If it says ~7 mins, cut down content by about 300 words.
  4. Re-check until it says ~5 mins.
Result: A speech that is perfectly timed for the event.

Explanation: Speaking time estimates are crucial for public speaking and video scripts.
