This free typing speed test measures your words per minute (WPM) and accuracy in real time. Also known as a WPM test, typing test or keyboard speed test, it gives you an instant, honest score using the standard formula — one "word" equals five characters — and reports both net WPM (after mistakes) and gross WPM, plus characters per minute (CPM).
Choose a 1, 2, 5 or 10 minute test and an easy, medium, hard or punctuation passage, and every word is colour-coded as you go so you can see mistakes instantly. It is perfect for practising for a job application, a data-entry role, or simply beating your own high score — and because people love to retry, it is a great way to improve your typing speed over time.
Hit 50+ WPM with 90% accuracy on the 1-minute test and you unlock a personalised typing certificate you can download and share. Looking for more tools? Try our Online Text Editor, generate a QR code, or edit a PDF.

One "word" is counted as five characters (the industry standard). Net WPM is the number of correctly typed characters divided by five, divided by the minutes elapsed - so mistakes lower your score.
The average is around 40 WPM. 50-60 WPM is solid, 70+ is fast, and professional typists often exceed 90-120 WPM. Accuracy matters just as much as raw speed.
Take the 1-minute test and reach at least 50 WPM with 90% accuracy. The certificate then unlocks - enter your name, generate it, and download it as an image.

Practise touch typing with all ten fingers, keep your eyes on the screen instead of the keyboard, and focus on accuracy first - speed follows. Short daily sessions work best.
Yes. The test adapts to any screen size and works with an on-screen or physical keyboard on phones and tablets.
Gross WPM counts every character you typed. Net WPM subtracts your errors, so it reflects your usable, accurate speed - the number that matters most.
