Tools to count, transform and clean up text

This page brings together the text tools on SuperDevTools: tools for measuring a piece of writing, transforming it or cleaning it up before you publish it, send it or hand it in. They are meant for students, web writers, translators, people who post on social media and anyone who has to keep to a set length.

The first tool in the family is the word and character counter. Type or paste a text and it shows, as you type, the number of words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs and lines. It also estimates reading time, compares the length of your text with common limits (title tag, meta description, SMS, X post, Instagram caption, LinkedIn post) and lists the words you use most often.

These tools work in your browser: the text you enter is not sent to the site. You can paste a draft, a letter or an extract from a dissertation without it leaving your device. More text tools will be added to this page.
