Words Per Minute Test
Click the text and start typing — the timer begins on your first keystroke. Correct letters turn dark, mistakes turn red.
Your result
This words per minute test shows your live speed as you type and a final score when the passage is done. The count uses the standard rule — five correct characters equal one word — so the number is comparable across sites.
Switch to a timed length below for a benchmark you can repeat, or change the text to common words to focus on raw finger speed.
How it is scored: WPM is your correct characters divided by five (the standard word length), over the minutes you spent typing — so accuracy is baked into the number. Typos count against both your accuracy percentage and your speed. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded and there is no account to create.
