- Characters (no spaces): Total characters with spaces removed — used for SMS length and social media limits
- Word Count: Words separated by whitespace. Useful for essays, articles and content writing
- Sentence Count: Sentences delimited by . ! ?
- Line Count: Number of lines/paragraphs
- Reading Time: Estimated at 200 words per minute (average adult reading speed)
Text Transformation Modes
- UPPERCASE: Converts all text to capital letters — useful for headings, acronyms
- lowercase: Converts all text to small letters — useful for normalising data
- Reversed: Reverses the entire string character by character — useful for palindrome checking and encoding

Reading Time Estimation
Our reading time estimate uses 200 words per minute — the average adult silent reading speed. Academic research suggests ranges of 200–400 WPM depending on reading purpose and text complexity. For reference:
- A 500-word article ≈ 2.5 minutes
- A 1,500-word blog post ≈ 7.5 minutes
- A 50,000-word novel ≈ 4.2 hours
