A Paragraph Counter counts paragraphs live and shows average words and sentences per paragraph, plus your longest paragraph. ToolPeko treats a paragraph as a block split by a blank line, runs the full count in your browser, and needs no upload, no sign-up and no paid plan to check any draft.
Type or paste your text and every count updates at once. You see words, characters, sentences, paragraphs and lines together, and this page adds the paragraph readings editors ask for: average words per paragraph, average sentences per paragraph, and the longest paragraph in the piece. Those three numbers show the shape of a draft at a glance.
A paragraph here is a block of text separated by a blank line. Press Enter twice between blocks and each block counts as one. A single line break inside a block keeps it as one paragraph with more than one line, and the line count on the page tracks those breaks on their own. That one rule explains nearly every count question this tool gets asked.
Web readers scan before they settle. A wall of text with no breaks sends most of them away, however good the words are. Blog writers, newsletter authors and page editors use the averages here to keep paragraphs short enough for a phone screen. Two to four sentences per paragraph is a common working range online, and the average sentences readout shows at once whether a draft lives near it or far from it.
Students meet the opposite demand. An essay plan often sets a paragraph for each point, with an opening and a close around them. Counting paragraphs against that plan shows a missing point or a point split in two before a teacher ever sees the work. A draft whose structure you can count is a draft you can fix on purpose, rather than one you reshape by feel in the last ten minutes.
Report writers and proposal writers check balance. If one section runs nine paragraphs and the next runs two, the reader feels the lopsided weight even without counting. The longest paragraph line also guards quotations and examples, which swell quietly when a writer pastes them in and forgets to trim.
The blank line rule is simple, and simple rules have edges. Text copied from a PDF or an old document sometimes carries a line break at the end of every line and no blank lines at all. Pasted in raw, that text can count as a single giant paragraph. The fix takes seconds. Add a blank line where each new point starts, and the count falls into line with the structure you meant.
Lists sit in a grey area too. A block of list items with no blank lines between them counts as one paragraph here, since the tool reads blocks, not list markup. Headings pasted as their own block count as their own paragraph. None of this is a fault in your text. It is the stated rule doing exactly what the page says it does, so you can predict the number before you see it.
Paragraph length carries no pass or fail mark. A one-line paragraph can be the strongest move on a page when it lands a point alone. A long one can hold a careful argument that would break if split. The counts give you the map. Where the breaks belong stays your call as the writer.
Nothing you paste is uploaded. The count runs in your browser, the draft is kept only in localStorage on your own machine, and no account or payment stands between you and the tool. There is no daily cap and no word limit. Drafts for clients, students and publishers get the same privacy as a private journal entry, because the page never sees the difference and never sends a byte anywhere.
A paragraph is a block of text separated from the next block by a blank line. Press Enter twice to start a new one. A single line break inside a block adds a line, not a new paragraph.
Text copied from PDFs and old files often has a line break at the end of each line but no blank lines between points. With no blank lines, the whole paste is one block. Add blank lines where points change and recount.
Average words and average sentences per paragraph show whether your writing runs in short, scannable blocks or long, dense ones. Online writing often sits near two to four sentences per paragraph, while academic work runs longer.
Only if blank lines separate them. A tight list with one item per line and no blank lines counts as a single block here, because the counter reads blank-line blocks rather than list markup.
Yes. Paste the full text or drop in a .txt file. There is no word limit and no daily cap, and you can download a summary of every count as a .txt file when you finish.
No. The counter runs in your browser on your device. Your draft is kept only in your browser storage so a refresh holds your work, and nothing is sent to or kept on a server.
