Adding up word counts across several separate documents or sections — chapters of a manuscript, multiple article drafts, several form responses — one at a time and then summing manually is a chore that this tool handles automatically.
Add as many text boxes as you need, paste a different piece of content into each, and see each individual word count alongside a continuously updating combined total across every box.
This is useful for tracking cumulative progress across a multi-chapter writing project, checking total content length across several form fields before a submission with a combined limit, or any situation where you need a running sum across multiple separate texts.

A tool that does one job well, without a cluttered interface or unrelated features competing for attention, tends to be faster to use than a heavier all-in-one app.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a limit to how many text boxes I can add?
No fixed limit — add as many as your project needs, and the combined total updates to include every box.
Does this save my texts between visits?
No, this tool works only within your current browser session — copy your text elsewhere if you need to preserve it after closing the page.
