Speech Time Calculator
The Speech Time Calculator estimates how long a script may take to deliver aloud and flags text that could be difficult to say clearly. It uses a practical words-per-minute estimate, sentence length, and Publish Readiness signals to help you prepare talks, voiceovers, podcasts, demos, and short presentations. Speaking time varies by speaker, pauses, audience, and delivery style, so the result is an estimate rather than a promise. Use the report to cut dense sentences, add breathing room, and check whether the script needs a clearer opening or closing before rehearsal.

FAQ
How accurate is the speaking time?
It is an estimate based on a practical speaking pace. Real delivery changes with pauses, emphasis, audience, and speaker style.
Should stage directions count?
Only count stage directions if the speaker will say them aloud. Otherwise remove them before timing.
What should I do if the script is too long?
Cut repeated setup, shorten examples, and split complex sentences before removing the main point.
Can I use this for voiceovers?
Yes. It is useful for voiceover planning, but final timing should be checked by recording or rehearsal.
