typing speed test online
A free, no-signup English typing test: pick a passage from one of three categories, type at your own pace, and see gross WPM, net WPM and accuracy the moment you finish. The timer only starts on the first keystroke, so time spent reading before you begin does not count against the result.
Below the 30 net WPM cutoff, common for people who still look for keys visually.
Inside the 50 to 79 net WPM range, consistent with someone who touch types regularly.
Above the 80 net WPM mark, a range common among experienced transcriptionists and typists.
We use the standard convention of 5 characters per word. Gross WPM is (total typed characters divided by 5) divided by the elapsed time in minutes. Net WPM subtracts a penalty based on errors made per minute, so it better reflects the speed of correct typing, not just the speed of pressing keys.
No. The test runs entirely in your browser, with no account, email or data sent to a server; the timer and the character-by-character comparison happen locally, and only the final result stays on your own device.
Each completed attempt is stored in the browser localStorage, which powers a progress chart of net WPM across your most recent attempts; clearing the site data in that browser erases this history.
No. Each of the three categories has at least two original passages, between 60 and 180 words, and one of them is drawn at random for every new test, which reduces the chance of memorizing the text after a few attempts.
