Key highlights of the appLive word count, character count, and reading time in the Confluence page byline — always visible, no clicking
Live count in every Confluence byline
Word count, character count, and reading time appear directly in the page byline row — no clicking, no highlighting, no copy-pasting into another tool. The count refreshes every time the page is rendered
Sections, characters, exclude macros
Click the byline for word and character counts (with and without spaces), reading time, a per-heading section breakdown, and a one-tap toggle to exclude macros and embeds from the count — ideal for translators
Stores nothing, sends nothing — really
No database, no caching of your content, no analytics, no tracking, no third-party calls. Two read-only Atlassian scopes, both pinned in the manifest. Everything is computed on Atlassian's Forge platform
More details
Language support: Word counting is optimised for space-delimited languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and similar). Whitespace-based counting undercounts Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text in v1.0 — a per-character mode for CJK pages is the most likely v1.1 enhancement.
In-app feedback: Report a bug / Suggest an improvement links live directly in the byline panel — every submission lands in our triage queue.
Built and supported by TaskHooker Pty Ltd, Melbourne, Australia.
