Rule of thumb
Tokens are not words.
A token can be a whole word, part of a word, punctuation, whitespace, or a character. The conversion changes with language, formatting, and tokenizer.
For English planning, about 0.75 words per token is a useful midpoint—not a billing-grade conversion.
1,000 tokens≈ 750 typical English words.
100,000 tokens≈ 75,000 typical English words, or roughly 150 pages at 500 words each.

FAQ
Tokens-to-words questions
How many words is 1,000 tokens?
About 750 English words is a useful rough estimate, with substantial variation by text and tokenizer.
How many pages is 100K tokens?
Using 75,000 English words and 500 words per page gives roughly 150 pages.
Does code follow the same conversion?
No. Code, JSON, tables, and heavily punctuated text can tokenize very differently from normal prose.
