Count your TikTok caption in real time. Land your hook in the first ~100 characters before the in-feed cutoff, budget room for hashtags, and stay under the 2,200-character limit, then check how the same text fits every other platform.

Process

How It Works

01

Paste your caption

Type or paste your TikTok caption into the field. The counter updates instantly as you write, hashtags included.

02

Front-load the first 100 chars

Only about the first 100 characters show before the caption is truncated in-feed. The counter flags that cutoff so your hook is visible without a tap.

03

Stay under 2,200

The progress bar moves as you approach the 2,200-character caption limit and shows exactly how many characters you have left for copy and hashtags.

Use Cases

Popular Use Cases

Hook the For You feed

About the first 100 characters show before truncation. Put a scroll-stopping hook there so it works even when the caption collapses.

Plan your hashtag strategy

Hashtags count toward the 2,200 limit and feed TikTok discovery. Track caption plus hashtags together so neither gets cut.

Optimize for search and SEO

Captions and hashtags are a key ranking signal on TikTok. Write keyword-rich copy and confirm it fits before you post.

Repurpose across platforms

See instantly whether your TikTok caption also fits Instagram, X, LinkedIn, and the rest before scheduling everywhere.

Tips

Pro Tips

01

The first 100 characters do the heavy lifting

TikTok truncates the caption in-feed after roughly 100 characters. Put your hook, question, or payoff in that window so it earns the tap and keeps viewers watching.

02

Hashtags are discovery, not decoration

Hashtags count toward the 2,200-character limit and help the For You algorithm categorize your video. Mix one or two broad tags with specific, niche tags rather than stuffing a long list.

03

Write captions TikTok can read

TikTok search and the For You page weigh the words in your caption. Include the terms your audience actually searches for instead of relying on hashtags alone.

04

Caption is not the video title

TikTok has a separate video-title concept, but discovery and viewers see the caption. This tool counts the caption, the field that drives reach and engagement.
