A compact portrait of the vocabulary

Paste a draft for unique words, type-token ratio, average word length, sentence count, and the longest words. Type-token ratio falls as a text grows, so compare samples of similar length rather than two different lengths. Long words are not automatically bad; repeated long words in every sentence usually are.

How to use this workbench

  1. Paste your text or load the example.
  2. Choose any options that apply to your task.
  3. Read the result, then copy it or download a text file. Your input stays available until you clear it or leave the page.

Frequently asked questions

Does my text leave my browser?

No. Processing happens in a local browser worker. The tool makes no request containing your draft.

Can I upload a document?

Use Import .txt to read a UTF-8 plain-text file locally. Word documents and PDFs are not supported. Copy their text into the input instead. Each field accepts up to 200,000 characters.

Will the result replace my original?

No transformation automatically overwrites your input. Check the output before copying it. Grammar and spelling suggestions change the input only when you choose to apply them.

Make the next edit count

Read the result in context. If the text needs another pass, try the word counter, text cleaner, or readability checker.
