Submitting a score sends your nickname, WPM, and accuracy to our server so it can be shown here — see our Privacy Policy for details. Submission is optional.
How to use
- Click into the text box and start typing the passage shown above it.
- The timer starts automatically on your first keystroke.
- Correctly typed characters are highlighted; mistakes are marked so you can see them as you go.
- When you finish the passage, your WPM (words per minute) and accuracy are calculated instantly.
- Click “New passage” to try again with a different text and beat your best score.
Related tips
- WPM is calculated using the standard convention of 5 characters = 1 "word", based on correctly typed characters.
- Accuracy counts every keystroke, including corrected mistakes, so backspacing to fix an error still affects your score.
- Your best score is stored only on this device (browser localStorage) — it is not uploaded or shared with anyone unless you copy and send it yourself.
