About this tool

An advanced text length analyzer that shows characters, words, sentences, paragraphs, and estimated reading time. Visual progress bars display how your text measures up against the limits for major platforms: Twitter/X (280), Instagram caption (2200), Facebook post (63206), LinkedIn post (3000), SMS single/multi-part (160/153), email subject (78), meta description (155–160), and page title (50–60). Bars turn amber when approaching the limit and red when over, giving instant feedback for copywriters, social media managers, and SEO professionals.

How to use

  1. 1 Type or paste your text into the large input area.
  2. 2 Statistics (characters, words, sentences, paragraphs, reading time) update in real time.
  3. 3 Scroll down to see progress bars for each platform limit.
  4. 4 Green bars are within limit, amber bars are within 10% of the limit, and red bars are over.
  5. 5 Use the platform bars to trim your text to fit the target channel.
