About this tool

Typing speed matters for jobs, exams and daily life. This test shows a passage, starts the clock on your first keystroke, and computes words-per-minute the standard way (5 characters = 1 word) with real accuracy tracking (correct chars ÷ typed chars). Live feedback turns practice into a game; the result screen shows WPM, accuracy and raw speed. Nothing leaves your browser. Your file never leaves this page — everything runs in your browser, there is no upload endpoint on this site, and the file is dropped from memory when you close the tab.
