FAQ

How is reading time calculated?
At 225 words per minute, a common adult silent-reading average. Speaking time assumes 130 wpm, close to a presentation pace.
Do numbers count as words?
Yes — any whitespace-separated token containing letters or digits counts as a word, matching most word processors.
Is my text stored anywhere?
No. The counter runs purely in memory on your device; closing the tab erases everything.
