What Is Sentence Analyzer?
All long sentences feel exhausting. All short ones feel choppy. Good writing varies length deliberately.
Paste your text and see sentence count, average length, longest and shortest at a glance.
If you're editing fiction, you find run-ons that need breaking. If you're writing for the web, you confirm short-sentence pacing. If you're auditing copy, you compare your draft against best-practice rhythm.
