Want to know how fast you actually type? The Typing Speed Test gives you your WPM score and accuracy in under a minute — no signup, no timer countdown until you start typing. If you write regularly and want to measure your output, also try the Word Counter to see words, characters, and reading time in real time.

What the Test Measures

WPM (Words Per Minute) — the number of words you type correctly per minute. A "word" is counted as 5 characters (including spaces) — the standard used by most typing tests.

Accuracy — the percentage of characters you typed correctly out of all characters typed. Mistakes count against you, so hitting backspace and fixing errors affects your accuracy.
