Paragraph Counter
Paste or type text. We count paragraphs: blocks of text separated by one or more blank lines. We also show line and word counts.
Count paragraphs

How it works
We split on one or more newlines to get blocks. Non-empty blocks count as paragraphs. Empty input = 0 paragraphs.

Use for essays, articles, or any text where you need a quick paragraph count.
