I recently found a very helpful online tool for anyone who works with scripts, videos, podcasts, voice-overs, or presentations.
If you've ever wondered “how many minutes will this take to read or speak?”, this can save a lot of time.
You can try it here:
WordToTime – word to time converter
What it does:
- Converts text, scripts, or word/character counts into accurate speaking duration
- Supports multiple modes: reading, narration, video voice-over, podcast, audiobook
- Adjustable speed (slow / average / fast / custom WPM)
- Includes pause modelling for punctuation and paragraph breaks
- Works fully in the browser — no text upload
Useful links inside the site:
- Word to Time calculator
- Speech to Time converter
- WPM test tool
If you’re preparing videos, podcasts, lectures, or public speaking material, this tool makes it easy to estimate real delivery time before recording.
Hope this helps someone here.
