Here’s how it works: The tool scans your text for the selected brackets—let’s say [ ]—and then counts all the words nestled between them. It’s like a word treasure hunt! The formula is simple:
- Step 1: Paste or type your text into the box.
- Step 2: Choose the type of brackets you want to count words within.

For example, if your text is: "The [quick brown fox] jumps over the [lazy dog]," the tool will count "quick brown fox" and "lazy dog" as the bracketed words. Easy, right?
