About this tool

This tool breaks your text into lowercase word tokens, counts how many times each one appears, and lists only the words that show up more than once — sorted from most to least frequent. It's useful for spotting accidental repetition in writing (like "the the" or an overused word), reviewing keyword density in SEO copy, or auditing a document for redundant phrasing before you edit it down.

Does it count "Word" and "word" as the same word?

Yes — everything is lowercased before counting, so capitalization differences don't create separate entries. Punctuation attached to a word is also stripped before matching.

Why don't common words like "the" or "and" show up separately flagged?

They're not filtered out — if they repeat, they'll appear in the list like any other word, usually near the top since they're naturally frequent. This tool doesn't apply a stop-word list, so every repeated word is shown.

Does a word that only appears once show up in the results?

No — only words with two or more occurrences are listed, since the point of the tool is to surface genuine repetition, not to show every word in the text.

Spotting words you keep repeating

Paste your draft and the tool lists every word that shows up more than once, with the number of times, most frequent first. If nothing repeats, it tells you so.

Writers use it to catch the habits that creep in when you've stared at a page too long: the same adjective three times in a paragraph, a connecting word in every sentence. Teachers and editors use it for the same reason, and people checking keyword stuffing in web copy find it useful as a quick sanity check.

Expect plenty of small words at the top, like the, and, of. That's normal. Skim past those and look for the interesting words with a count of three or more.

Good to know

Words are compared without regard to case, so "The" and "the" count together.
