These words-per-minute ranges are commonly cited publishing and presentation-industry estimates, not a measurement of your own reading or speaking speed — actual time varies by content difficulty, audience, and delivery style.
What is this tool?
Estimates how long a block of text takes to read silently or to speak aloud, based on commonly cited publishing and presentation-industry words-per-minute ranges — not a measurement of your own personal pace. Choose a slow/average/fast preset for each estimate independently.
How to use it
- Paste an article, script, or any block of text.
- Choose a reading-speed preset and a speaking-pace preset.
- Read both time estimates as human-readable durations.
