About this tool

Measure how fast and accurately you type. This test tracks your input character by character and reports your net words per minute (WPM), raw speed, error rate and completion time, giving a clear picture of both speed and accuracy rather than speed alone.

Net WPM matters because raw speed means little if it is full of mistakes — the net figure accounts for errors, which is the number that reflects real typing ability. Character-level tracking shows exactly where errors occur, so you can see whether accuracy or pace is your limiting factor.

It runs in your browser and does not log your keystrokes, so practising is private. Use it to benchmark your current speed, track improvement over time, or warm up before work that involves a lot of typing.

Frequently asked questions

What does it measure?
Net words per minute (WPM), raw speed, error rate and completion time, so you see both how fast and how accurately you type.
What is the difference between net and raw WPM?
Raw WPM is your speed before accounting for mistakes; net WPM subtracts the cost of errors, giving a truer measure of effective typing ability.
Are my keystrokes logged?
No. The test runs in your browser and does not record your keystrokes, so practising is private.
How can I improve my score?
Focus on accuracy first — errors cut net WPM sharply — then build speed. The character-level feedback shows where you slip so you can target practice.
What is a good typing speed?
It varies, but many proficient typists land somewhere around 60–80 WPM. Use the test to establish your own baseline and track improvement rather than chasing a single number.
