Count spaces, tabs, new lines, empty lines, repeated spaces, and indentation issues so you can clean copied text, code, CSV content, and draft formatting.
Whitespace Counter converts raw pasted text into a clear analytics report. It shows the main count, supporting metrics, density, and an interpretation that helps you decide whether the text needs cleanup or review.
All processing happens locally in the browser. No server upload is required for pasted text.
Example input: First line has extra spaces.
Indented line with a tab.

Whitespace Counter uses deterministic character matching and script-aware checks where applicable. It also calculates total characters, lines, density, frequency, and category-specific quality signals.
Language detection is heuristic, not a full linguistic classifier. For legal, academic, or production validation, review the exported report manually.
Paste the text and run the tool. It separates spaces, tabs, new lines, empty lines, and repeated spacing.
Enable whitespace normalization to trim leading and trailing spaces and collapse repeated spaces.
Yes. Tabs are counted separately from normal spaces and can be converted to spaces.
The empty line counter identifies blank rows created by repeated line breaks or pasted formatting.
Run the tool, review the whitespace score, then copy the normalized output.
