Token Counter
Counting words, characters, or even custom tokens shouldn’t feel like solving a math problem. Whether you’re editing an essay, drafting a tweet, or analyzing data, this tool is your go-to for quick, accurate counts. Just paste your text, select what you need—words, characters, or custom tokens—and voilà! No more guessing or manual counting. It’s like having a tiny assistant who’s always ready to help, minus the coffee breaks.

How It Works
This tool uses a simple formula to count what matters to you. If you select words, it splits your text into individual words by spaces and counts them. For characters, it counts every single letter, space, and punctuation mark. And for custom tokens, it looks for the specific string you enter (like a word or symbol) and counts how many times it appears in your text. It’s that straightforward—no rocket science required!
Example Counts
| Text | Words | Characters | Custom Token (e.g., "the") |
|---|---|---|---|
| "Hello world" | 2 | 11 | 0 |
| "The quick brown fox" | 4 | 19 | 1 |
| "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" | 5 | 26 | 0 |
