Gmail Word Count Extension

Free tool to show the word count for email drafts in Gmail.

Do you want to write better emails that get straight to the point and save everybody's time?

Track the number of words in emails you write with Gmail. Set your own word limit, and the extension will display an indicator in Gmail to track your email word count.

The indicator is green when you are below the word count, yellow when you start approaching your limit, and red when you are over the limit.

Use this visual guide to keep your emails short and concise as you write.

How it works:

- Install the extension

- Set a word count limit in the extension settings or use the default limit of 50 words

- Start writing an email in Gmail and keep track of your word count

Free with no account or sign in required. This extension does not read your emails or save any data.
