Count commas, periods, question marks, exclamation marks, quotation marks, brackets, and repeated punctuation to understand writing style and punctuation density.
Punctuation 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: Hello, world! Is this balanced writing? Yes... maybe!! "Check commas, quotes, and brackets (now)."
Punctuation 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 paragraph and run the tool. It reports each punctuation mark and total punctuation density.
Yes. The tool flags repeated punctuation such as !!, ???, and mixed combinations.
The punctuation score compares punctuation density with sentence count and labels sparse, balanced, or heavy usage.
Use Remove Punctuation mode to output a cleaned version without punctuation characters.
Yes. Quotes, brackets, parentheses, commas, periods, question marks, and related marks are included.
