Overview
About this tool
Counts your text the way each platform really counts it — emoji as one character, CJK as two on X, and every link as a flat 23 — then shows the limit and truncation point for ten surfaces at once.
Instructions
How to use it
Type or paste your text. Every platform’s count updates as you go, along with the point where that platform hides the rest behind a “see more”.
Why counts differ between tools
Most character counters use a naïve string length, which is wrong in three common cases: an emoji like 👨👩👧👦 is one character to a reader but seven codepoints; X counts Japanese and Chinese characters as two; and X counts every link as 23 characters no matter how long it is. This tool applies each platform’s real rule.
