About this tool

Paste text to estimate the number of tokens it will consume, using an accurate client-side tokenizer for OpenAI-style models and a character-ratio approximation for other model families.

How to use

  1. Paste your text or prompt into the input box.
  2. Select the model family (OpenAI-style exact tokenization, or approximate for others).
  3. View the estimated token count.

FAQ

Is the token count exact?

For OpenAI-style models it uses the real tokenizer running locally, so it's exact. For model families without a public tokenizer, it uses a documented character-to-token approximation (roughly 4 characters per token), clearly labeled as an estimate.

Does my text get sent anywhere?

No, tokenization runs entirely in your browser via a WASM tokenizer — your text never leaves your device.
