Deterministic Tokenization & Syllable Heuristics in Browser Memory
Simple whitespace splitting miscounts hyphenated compounds, em-dashes, and numeric ranges. ZeeML normalizes punctuation boundaries before computing token counts, sentence boundaries, and syllable estimates.
All lexical calculations run reactively on every keystroke inside your browser without transmitting a single character over the network.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does ZeeML calculate reading time and speaking time?
Reading time is computed at 200 words per minute (standard comprehension speed for non-fiction), while speaking time is computed at 130 words per minute (natural presentation cadence).
What is a good Flesch Reading Ease score?
Scores between 60 and 70 represent plain, accessible English; scores between 30 and 50 are typical of academic research papers, legal briefs, and technical specifications.
How is keyword density calculated in the Word Counter?
The analyzer filters out common English stopwords (such as "the", "and", "with"), counts the frequency of each remaining 3+ character token, and divides by total word count to flag potential keyword stuffing.
Does character count include spaces and line breaks?
The primary readout displays total UTF-8 characters (including spaces), while the secondary telemetry line reports exact non-whitespace characters for strict academic portal limits.
