Word Counter

Pay per event
This actor counts words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs in web page content. It intelligently detects the main content area (article, main, or body) and removes navigation, scripts, and other non-content elements. It also estimates reading time (200 WPM) and speaking time (130 WPM).
You can access the Word Counter programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
