Yes. Click the Upload button and select a PDF, DOCX, or PPTX file. The tool extracts all readable text from the file directly in your browser using pdfjs-dist, mammoth, and jszip libraries. No file is ever uploaded to a server — everything is processed locally for complete privacy.

Yes. The tool automatically detects your text language and counts words correctly. It supports English, Hindi (Devanagari), Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. For Hindi and Arabic, words are split on whitespace. For Chinese/Japanese/Korean, each character is counted as one word, which is the standard approach.

Reading time is based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute. For fewer than 200 words, it shows seconds (e.g., 30s). For 200+ words, it shows minutes (e.g., 5m). For very long texts, it shows hours and minutes (e.g., 2h 15m). Speaking time uses 130 words per minute.

The Readability Score uses the Flesch Reading Ease formula — higher scores mean easier text. A score of 60-100 is easy to read, 30-60 is moderately difficult, and below 30 is very complex. It considers average sentence length and syllable count per word. Best used for English text.

Yes. Enter a number in the Word Goal field. Once your text reaches that word count, the tool prevents further typing. This is useful for essay assignments, social media posts, or any writing with a strict word cap. Click the X button next to the goal to remove the limit anytime.

Yes. The Character Limits section shows progress bars for Twitter/X (280), Instagram (2200), LinkedIn (3000), Facebook, Meta Title (60), Meta Description (160), YouTube Title (100), and Pinterest (500). Bars turn red when you exceed the platform limit.
