How it works
- Paste your script
A video script, a lesson intro, a pitch.
- Pick your pace
Measured, natural or brisk. Natural suits most short videos.
- Adjust
The calculator flags sentences longer than 20 words, which are harder to say in one breath and to follow on screen.
Frequently asked questions
How many words for a 60-second video?
About 150 words at a natural pace. Count 130 for a measured tone and 170 for a brisk one.
Does it account for pauses?
Partly: a short pause is added at the end of each sentence. If you record in the PEDAG·REEL Studio, extra silences are removed anyway.
Why short sentences?
Spoken aloud and on a phone screen, one idea per sentence is easier to follow, and each sentence can carry its own animation.
