Find your most-used words
Paste any text and instantly see a table of each word and how many times it appears, sorted from most to least frequent. Toggle case-insensitive counting to merge Cat and cat, or set a minimum word length to hide short filler words like a and to. The table updates live as you type and shows the top 100 words, and you can copy the full list as word: count lines.
How words are counted
A word is any run of Unicode letters, numbers, or apostrophes, so contractions like don't stay intact and accented words like café are counted correctly. Ties in frequency are broken alphabetically for a stable, predictable order.
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a single word?
Any continuous sequence of letters, digits, or apostrophes. Punctuation and spaces split words, so contractions like don't count as one word while hyphenated pairs split into two.
How does the minimum word length option work?
It hides any word shorter than the number you set. Setting it to 3, for example, removes one- and two-letter words so common short words don't dominate the table.
Can I hide filler words like "the" and "and"?
Yes. Turn on "Ignore common words" to drop around 70 of the most common English stop words (the, and, of, to, a…) before counting, so the meaningful words rise to the top. It is off by default, and minimum word length only hides short words, not common ones.
