How the Writing Studio works
The Writing Studio counts words the way a human reader does. Text is split on Unicode letter and number boundaries, so hyphenated compounds are treated as one word and apostrophes inside contractions are kept intact. Sentences are detected on ., !, ? and paragraph breaks; paragraphs are separated by blank lines.
Reading time is estimated at 238 words per minute — the widely cited median silent reading speed for adults. Speaking time uses 130 words per minute, a comfortable pace for presentations. Page count assumes ~275 words per double-spaced page.
The readability score uses the Flesch Reading Ease formula, combining average sentence length and average syllables per word into a 0–100 score. Higher is easier — 60+ is comfortable for general audiences.
Everything runs entirely inside your browser using standard JavaScript APIs. No text ever leaves your device, which makes the studio safe for drafts, confidential documents and client work.
