01 / IN PRACTICE

Estimate spoken copy

Paste only what will be said aloud. Choose a speaking pace and add deliberate pauses. A target duration gives you a rough word budget.

02 / IN PRACTICE

Check with a real read

Use the rehearsal timer while reading aloud. This calculator does not parse action or predict the final runtime of a film.

Does this voiceover timer predict the length of a whole screenplay?

No. It estimates spoken dialogue or narration from your chosen reading pace and extra pauses. Use the rehearsal timer to check a real read; action and editing are outside the estimate.
