Frequently Asked Questions – wordstats.net

wordstats.net offers a powerful suite of free online text analysis tools designed for writers, students, educators, and professionals. You can instantly:

• Count words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs with the Word Counter Tool.
• Analyze readability, grade level, and clarity using the Readability Checker.
• Check syllable count, unique words, word frequency, and more.

Our tools are browser-based, require no registration, and deliver instant, accurate results—making your writing better, faster.

Your privacy is our top priority. All text analysis happens completely in your browser—your words are never uploaded, stored, or shared. We do not save or retain your content, and we don't require any account or login. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.

Our Word Counter Tool and Readability Checker use algorithms based on industry standards (including Flesch-Kincaid, ARI) and are tested for accuracy with various writing styles.

• Word and character counts match those used by most editors and publishers.
• Readability scores align with academic grading and professional benchmarks.

Minor differences may occur if your text contains unusual formatting or very rare words, but our tools are highly reliable for essays, articles, reports, and more. For advanced users, our Text Analysis Suite provides multi-metric, live updating analysis.

Our tools are optimized for plain text (paste directly or type in). You can copy from:

• Microsoft Word (DOC/DOCX)
• Google Docs
• Email, web pages, or PDF (selectable text only)

For best results, paste unformatted text. Formatting (like bold or italics) is ignored. If you need deeper file support, let us know!

wordstats.net is fully responsive and works on all modern browsers—including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera—across desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile devices. You don't need to install anything; just visit the site and start analyzing your text instantly.

Our tools are optimized for English-language writing. You can analyze text in other languages, but some features (like syllable count or readability scores) may be less accurate for non-English text. For best results, use English writing—especially for advanced metrics.

No. Your text is processed instantly in your browser. We never upload, save, or share your words. There’s no account sign-up or history—what you paste remains private and is gone when you leave or refresh the page. For extra peace of mind, read our Privacy Policy.
