Lokho ozothola
- See your words per minute (WPM) score
- Track your accuracy percentage in real time
- Compare your result to professional benchmarks
- See how your speed and accuracy change across three separate rounds
Imibuzo Evame Ukubuzwa
You type three passages, 60 seconds each. Words per minute and accuracy update live as you type, and your final score is the average across all three rounds.
Words per minute is your typed characters divided by five, per minute. The final score then subtracts 2 WPM for every 1% error rate, so a fast run with many mistakes scores lower than a slightly slower, clean one.
The average office worker types around 40 WPM. Proficient typists reach 60–80 WPM. Data-entry and transcription roles typically ask for 50+ WPM with high accuracy.
No — backspace is disabled on purpose, the same way most employment typing tests work. It keeps the accuracy measurement honest and stops you editing your way to a better score.

Yini Ijasi Lokubhala?
A three-round typing test that measures how fast and how accurately you type real text — full sentences, not isolated words.
Each round gives you 60 seconds: plain prose first, then a passage full of numbers and punctuation, then technical copy with version numbers and symbols.
Kuqhubekelele nokufundaCabangela okuncane
Your score is your average words per minute across the three rounds, minus 2 WPM for every 1% error rate — so accuracy counts as much as raw speed.

How does the typing test work?
You type three passages, 60 seconds each. Words per minute and accuracy update live as you type, and your final score is the average across all three rounds.
How is the WPM score calculated?
Words per minute is your typed characters divided by five, per minute. The final score then subtracts 2 WPM for every 1% error rate, so a fast run with many mistakes scores lower than a slightly slower, clean one.
What is a good typing speed?
The average office worker types around 40 WPM. Proficient typists reach 60–80 WPM. Data-entry and transcription roles typically ask for 50+ WPM with high accuracy.
Can I correct mistakes while typing?
No — backspace is disabled on purpose, the same way most employment typing tests work. It keeps the accuracy measurement honest and stops you editing your way to a better score.
Do employers use typing tests when hiring?
Yes. Customer support, data entry, transcription, and administrative roles often set a minimum words-per-minute requirement. Taking a timed test gives you that number before an employer asks for it.
Is the typing test free? Do I need an account?
It is free, and your WPM, accuracy, and benchmark comparison appear on screen immediately. No signup is required to take it or to see your score.
How can I type faster?
Touch typing without looking at the keyboard is the single biggest gain, followed by getting comfortable with the number row and common punctuation. Retaking a timed test is how you find out whether practice is actually moving the number.
