Hi @Seum,
You may try this solution.
1 Unpivot your table columns in Power Query Editor(Transform data) and remove unnecessary columns, then you will get a Product table
2 Create a Calculated column with the following dax formula
alphabet = SELECTCOLUMNS( GENERATESERIES(UNICODE("A"),UNICODE("Z")),"Character",UNICHAR([Value]))
Build one-many relationship for these two tables
3 Create a Measure to count the characters
COUNT =
VAR res =
CALCULATE ( COUNT ( 'Table'[Product] ), VALUES ( 'Table'[Product] ) )
RETURN
IF ( ISBLANK ( res ), 0, res )
Then, you will get the desired result.
Also, attached the sample pbix file.

Hi @Seum
I guess these are not just letters, they can be any text with any number of letters? But they are always separated with comma?

It's an easy task but you have to change your data model. In Power Query use the transformations to have one letter per row, no commas. Best transformations are split column on delimiter and then unpivot. This will give you the format of data you need.
