Typing Speed Test

About the Typing Speed Test

Typing Speed Test gives you a 60-second typing challenge on a random snippet of text and reports your Words Per Minute (WPM) and accuracy. A fun benchmark you can re-run daily to track improvement.

How to use

1. Click Start — the timer begins on your first keystroke.
2. Type the displayed passage as fast and accurately as you can.
3. Wait for the 60 seconds to elapse and read your WPM & accuracy score.

Benefits & key features

• Calibrated against standardised 5-character 'words' used by professional tests.
• Real-time feedback on mistyped characters.
• No account needed, no leaderboards — just personal progress.
• Useful practice for students, writers, developers and transcribers.

Pro tip

Average office worker = ~40 WPM. Journalists and programmers commonly hit 80+. Touch-typing practice (no looking at the keys) is the fastest route to improvement.

Why choose toolsfy for Text & Document tools?

Writing tools on the web typically lean toward either "blog-post-assistant with an AI upsell" or "plain counter with zero insight". toolsfy aims for the middle ground: a collection of sharp, single-purpose text utilities that run inline while you draft, with no usage cap and no sign-up. Because every tool is client-side, you can happily paste confidential paragraphs, leaked transcripts or half-finished blog drafts without second-guessing where they end up.

Common use cases

• Students counting words against strict assignment limits while the essay is still being edited, not after it has been submitted.
• Copywriters A/B-testing two versions of a landing page paragraph and checking whether one reads at a different grade level than the other.
• Journalists cleaning up a pasted transcript — removing line breaks, converting case, stripping extra whitespace — before a Ctrl-F search.
