The next tool removes it on arrival and ignores it if more than a minute has passed.

Tokens to words converter explained

Convert between a token count and an estimated word count using a ratio you supply. The initial 0.75 is an editable example assumption, not a measured property of your model or language.

A worked example

With the example assumption of 0.75 words per token, 1,000 tokens correspond to an estimated 750 words. Changing the ratio changes the estimate immediately.

Before you use the result

Not a tokenizer and not a context-limit or billing check. Real token counts depend on the model, language, punctuation and code. Use the model’s actual tokenizer before relying on a hard limit.
