What it counts

Totals you can check against the actual wording

A number without the source text is hard to trust. This tool shows both, so you can confirm what was counted.

Character count

See how many characters are visible, including spaces, for captions and tight copy limits.

Count without spaces

Get a no-space total when a form, contest, or platform ignores whitespace.

Word and line totals

Count words and line breaks from menus, essays, slides, and screenshots.

Language-aware reading

The model reads the visible script first, then counts what it transcribed.

Selective counting

Ask it to ignore watermarks, stamps, or a logo if those should not be included.

Verifiable output

Copy the extracted text and recount it yourself whenever the number matters.

Upload above. Totals and the extracted text appear together in the console.

What you'll get

A typical Image Text Count result

The headline numbers come first. The extracted text stays underneath so you can audit the count.

How it works

From image to a checked total

1

Upload the image

Use a clear JPEG, PNG, or WebP photo. Cropping closer to the text usually helps.

2

Say what to include

Add a requirement if only one block should be counted.

3

Read, then count

The console transcribes visible text and returns character, word, and line totals.

4

Review the source text

If a number looks off, read the extracted text and adjust the count yourself.

Who uses this

When the limit is a number, but the source is a photo

Social

Check caption and bio length

Count the words in a screenshot before you reuse a caption or stay inside a platform limit.

School

Estimate words on a photographed page

Get a first-pass word count from a worksheet or printed essay, then verify the important lines.

Product

Measure packaging and label copy

Count the visible claim or ingredient text on a pack photo before you rewrite or translate it.
