What is Word Frequency Counter?
A Word Frequency Counter is a free online text analysis tool that counts how many times each word appears in a document and ranks them by frequency. Paste any text β an article, essay, blog post, or transcript β and the tool instantly builds a frequency table showing each word, its count, and its percentage share of the total. You can toggle case sensitivity, filter out common stop words, set a minimum word length, limit to the top N results, sort by frequency or alphabetically, and export everything to CSV. All analysis runs locally in your browser, so your content stays private.
