Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using Accurate Word Counter at accuratewordcounter.com (the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these terms.

1. Use of the Service

Accurate Word Counter provides a free, browser-based word and character counting tool. You may use the Service for any lawful personal, academic, or professional purpose, subject to these Terms.

2. Accuracy of Results

The word count, character count, reading time, and all other statistics provided by the Service are estimates based on standard algorithms. Results may differ from those produced by other tools (e.g. Microsoft Word, Google Docs) due to differences in tokenisation rules. Always verify counts using the official tool required by your institution, employer, or platform before submitting important work.
