Why reading time matters

Readers use “X min read” cues to decide whether to start an article. Editors use reading time to hit content briefs. This calculator divides word count by WPM (often ~200 for adults reading on screens).

How to use it

Paste your draft, or enter a manual word count to override. Tune WPM lower for technical or dense prose, higher for light consumer content.
