Your weak keys
The darker a key, the more you missed it in this test. Practise those keys in the lessons.
More than a test — learn to type properly
Most typing sites only measure you. Type.biz teaches you: a 13-lesson course that starts on the home row and unlocks one step at a time, so your speed grows on real technique instead of two-finger habits.
Step-by-step lessons
Home row, top row, bottom row, then full sentences — each lesson unlocks when you pass the one before at 92% accuracy.
Weak-key heatmap
Every test ends with a keyboard heatmap of the exact keys you miss most, so practice targets your real problem keys.
Daily challenge
One new challenge text every day, the same for everyone. Keep your streak alive and share your result card.

What is a good typing speed?
The average person types around 40 WPM. Most office jobs are comfortable at 50–60 WPM, professional typists reach 70–80 WPM, and anything above 90 WPM is elite. But raw speed is only half the story: a 60 WPM typist at 98% accuracy produces more usable text than an 80 WPM typist at 90% accuracy, who spends their time fixing mistakes.
How the test works
Pick a time (15–120 seconds) or a word count (10–100 words) and start typing. WPM counts correct characters in standard five-character words. When the test ends you get your speed, accuracy, a consistency score, a per-second speed chart, and a heatmap of your weakest keys. Results and personal bests are saved in your browser only.
New to touch typing?
Start with the free course. Lesson 1 takes two minutes and puts your index fingers on F and J — the foundation everything else builds on. Short daily practice beats one long session: try the daily challenge to keep a streak going, and drill numbers and symbols once letters feel easy.
