Letter Counter

The letter counter tool quickly calculates the number of letters in text. It also has a built in character counter with and adjustable toggles such as counting spaces, numbers, and punctuation as letters. You can choose to count letters including spaces, or count letters not including spaces, with the same feature available for numbers and punctuation. You can choose to count alphabet letters only if needed. Paste or type text and the tool will show how many letters appear in it.

• Open the letter counter and paste or type your text.
• Choose whether to count spaces, numbers, or punctuation as part of the letter count.
• The tool automatically calculates the amount of letters in text.
• View the character counter, word counter, sentence counter, and line counter totals for extra information.
• Use the buttons to copy your text or to clear and restart.

A letter counter counts alphabet letters and tells you how many letters A-Z in a text. A character counter counts every character, so it will show the character count including spaces and punctuation. If you want to calculate characters in text for a strict limit, use the character counter; if you need to count alphabet letters only, use the letter counter at the top of this page. Our tool has toggles to choose whether to count spaces, numbers and punctuations as letters for even more customization.

As well as letters, you can ask the tool to include numbers, punctuation and spaces in the count total. It also reports how many characters in text, how many words in the text, and how many lines and how many sentences appear — all useful totals when you need precise limits for social media posts or essays.

Writers, editors, students, developers and social media managers use a letter counter or character counter to check their text. Some social media platforms limit the amount of text you can use - for example, instagram bio length and tweet length are both limited text spaces. Many school tasks or job applications have a character limit that needs to be considered too. Anyone needing to count characters in text, calculate letters in text for limits, or confirm a letter count including/excluding spaces will find this tool handy.

Our tool requires no sign-up. All counting happens locally in your browser so it’s private and free — you control the text and nothing is stored on a server. You can calculate characters in text or check letter counts with confidence.
