Knowing which words repeat most often in a piece of writing is useful for keyword research, spotting overused words in an essay, checking SEO density, or analyzing survey responses and transcripts. This tool lowercases your text, extracts word-like tokens (letters, digits and apostrophes), counts every occurrence, and ranks the results from most to least frequent, showing up to the top 200 distinct words. The counting happens instantly as you type, and you can export the full table as a CSV file for further analysis in a spreadsheet.
No — text is lowercased before counting, so "The" and "the" are counted together as the same word, which better reflects actual word usage.
Punctuation marks are ignored — only letters, digits, and apostrophes (to keep contractions like "don't" intact) are counted as part of a word.
Yes — the "Download CSV" button saves the full ranked word-and-count table as a spreadsheet-ready CSV file you can open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any similar tool.
Paste your text and the tool lists each distinct word with the number of times it appears, from most frequent to least. It also shows how many different words there are and how many in total, so you can see how varied the writing is.
It's useful for SEO writers checking keyword usage, students analyzing a text, translators building a glossary, and anyone proofreading a long piece for repetition. The list is limited to the top 200 words, and you can download it as a CSV file for a spreadsheet.
Counts ignore capitalization, so "The" and "the" are tallied together. Punctuation attached to a word is dropped.
