Privacy note

Tool inputs are processed in your browser only. Theme, language and favorites may use localStorage; hosting may keep standard access logs (IP, UA, URL) without tool payloads.

FAQ（5）

Why counts differ from Word?

Engines count characters/words differently (spaces, CJK, hyphenation). Compare “non-whitespace” too.

How are Chinese characters counted?

CJK characters count individually; Latin words are space-separated tokens.

Is reading time accurate?

Estimate only (rough words-per-minute). Adjust for your audience.

Is my text uploaded?

No. Counting is local.

Can I copy the summary?
