Reading time calculator

Estimate reading time from your text and a chosen reading speed.

Your choices

Numbers shown initially are examples. Replace them with your own figures. Inputs are processed for this response and are not stored by this tool.

How it works

Reading time = whitespace-separated words ÷ words per minute. This is a rough estimate, especially for scripts without spaces, complex material or assistive reading.

Example and practical tip

A 600-word text at 200 words per minute takes about 3 minutes.

Is an account required?

No. Use this tool as a guest. Nothing is published or sent to another person.

Can I save this in UNLISPACE?

Copy the result and review it first. Your Space, Stream and business tools use their own signed-in saving and approval steps.
