| Paste some text to see the counts. | ||||
Paste some text and we will flag the words and phrases that language models overuse.
Repeated two- and three-word phrases will appear here. Useful for spotting a tic you did not know you had.
Everything runs in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, which matters if you are checking a draft you have not published.
What people use it for
- Checking a draft for words you have leaned on too heavily
- Editing AI-assisted writing so it stops sounding like AI-assisted writing
- Keyword density on a page you are optimising
- Finding the phrase you unknowingly repeat in every paragraph
- Estimating token cost before sending a long prompt to an API
- Teaching — showing students their own repetition
Questions
Words and phrases that large language models reach for far more often than people do — delve, tapestry, seamless, "it is important to note", "in today's digital age". People use these too. What gives a text away is how many of them appear together.
No, and be wary of anything that says it does. Detectors are unreliable and regularly flag human writing. This counts specific overused words so you can reread those lines and decide for yourself.
No. Everything happens in your browser — nothing is sent to us, stored, or logged. You can disconnect from the internet and it still works.
Any run of letters, including hyphens and apostrophes, so "state-of-the-art" and "don't" each count once. Numbers and punctuation are skipped.
Otherwise the top of every list is "the", "and", "of". Switch it off if you want the raw counts.
It is a rough guide of about four characters per token, which is close for English prose. Every model tokenises slightly differently, so treat it as an estimate for budgeting, not a billing figure.
