What this measures
Typing Speed measures words per minute and character accuracy on a real typing task — a direct benchmark of keyboard fluency.
How it works
Type the shown text exactly as written. The timer starts on your first keystroke. Backspace is allowed. The default run is 60 seconds.
How results are calculated
Net WPM = correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ elapsed minutes. We also show accuracy, errors and consistency. Prompt and locale are stored with your result.
Accuracy & limitations
Keyboard, layout familiarity and text difficulty all affect WPM. This is a utility benchmark (Evidence C).
