Test your typing speed online

Use this typing speed test to measure how quickly and accurately you type. Choose a test length, type the prompt, and review your words per minute, characters per minute, accuracy, and errors.

The test is designed to stay focused on one task: help you understand your current typing speed without distractions. It works well for quick practice sessions, keyboard warmups, and checking whether your accuracy is improving over time.

What your result means

  • WPM estimates words per minute using the common five-character word convention.
  • CPM shows correct characters per minute.
  • Accuracy compares correct characters with the text you typed.
  • Errors count typed characters that did not match the prompt.

For the best result, try the same duration several times and compare your average rather than judging one attempt.

Frequently asked questions

What is WPM?

WPM means words per minute. Many typing tests estimate one word as five characters, so the result is based on correct characters typed during the test.

Is accuracy more important than speed?

Accuracy should come first. A high WPM score is less useful if many characters are wrong. Build accuracy first, then gradually increase speed.

What test length should I choose?

A 30-second test is useful for a quick check. A 1-minute test gives a more stable result. Longer tests are better for measuring typing endurance.

Does this tool upload what I type?

No. This tool calculates the result in your browser and avoids sending the full typed text to analytics or to a server.
