What is a Calculadora de tiempo de lectura?

The "X min read" label under a blog title is usually just word count divided by an assumed reading speed — this does that math for you at 200 words per minute, the commonly cited average adult silent-reading pace, so you can add an accurate estimate to a post before publishing.

How to use the Calculadora de tiempo de lectura

  1. Paste your article or draft
  2. It's divided by an average reading speed, instantly on your device
  3. Use the estimate as a "X min read" byline

Example

A 1,200-word article comes out to a 6-minute read at 200 wpm — paste your draft in to get the exact figure for your word count.

Frequently asked questions

What reading speed does this assume?

200 words per minute — the commonly cited average adult silent-reading speed. A faster or slower reader will take a different amount of actual time.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No — Calculadora de tiempo de lectura runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript/WebAssembly. Your text is never sent to a server.

Can I adjust the 200 wpm assumption for a slower or faster reader?

Not currently — 200 wpm is fixed as the commonly cited average adult silent-reading pace. For a rough adjustment, scale the result manually: a reader at 250 wpm finishes in about 80% of the shown time.
