These free typing tools sit alongside the typing tests, lessons and games on this site. Each one answers a practical question: does my keyboard work properly, what does this typing result mean, how fast am I on the number pad, can I get a certificate, and am I actually improving? None of them needs an account or a download. They run in your browser, and anything they save stays on your device.
The tools at a glance
| Tool | What it does | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
| Keyboard tester | Shows every key lighting up as you press it, and checks rollover (ghosting) and double-typing (chatter) | A key seems dead, sticky or types twice; you bought a new keyboard |
| WPM calculator | Turns characters or words, time and mistakes into gross and net WPM, accuracy, CPM and KPH, showing the working | You have numbers from an exam, a job test or another site |
| Typing certificate | Makes a free PNG or PDF certificate from a result you typed on this site | You want a record of your speed for a CV, class or goal |
| 10-key typing test | Times you entering numbers on the numeric keypad and reports keystrokes per hour | You are applying for data entry, accounts or billing work |
| Average typing speed | Benchmarks by age and job, plus a quick test to see where you stand | You want to know whether your WPM is good |
| My progress | Your personal dashboard: speed over time, personal bests, badges, weak keys, export and import | You want to see if practice is paying off |
Keyboard tester
Before you blame your fingers for a bad score, check the hardware. The keyboard test draws a full-size keyboard that colours in, key by key, as each key is shown to work. It also checks how many keys your keyboard registers at once (rollover, where cheap keyboards "ghost" and drop keys) and spots chatter, where a worn switch types a letter twice. It is useful for laptops, second-hand keyboards and new mechanical keyboards alike.
WPM and KPH calculator
The WPM calculator works out typing speed from any numbers you have. Enter characters or words, the time in minutes and seconds, and your uncorrected mistakes. It shows:
Gross WPM = (characters ÷ 5) ÷ minutes · Net WPM = Gross WPM − mistakes ÷ minutes
plus accuracy, characters per minute and keystrokes per hour (KPH, the KDPH figure used in SSC and other Indian government skill tests). For example, 1,500 characters in 5 minutes with 10 mistakes is 60 WPM gross and 58 WPM net. Two small planners answer "how many words will I type?" and "what speed do I need?" for a given time.
Typing certificate
The typing certificate tool turns a result you typed on this site into a clean A4 certificate with your name, WPM, accuracy, test length, language, date and a certificate ID. Download it as a PNG or print it to PDF. It is free and made in your browser. It is a self-generated certificate of your own result, not an official qualification – good for a CV or a classroom, but not a replacement for a government typing certificate.
10-key numeric keypad test
Data entry work is often about numbers, not words. The 10-key test shows a list of numbers; you type each one on the numeric keypad and press Enter. Your speed is measured in keystrokes per hour. As a common guide, employers ask for about 8,000 KPH for entry-level data entry, 10,000–12,000 KPH is good, and 15,000+ is excellent. Keep your right index finger on 4, middle on 5, ring on 6, thumb on 0 and little finger on Enter.
Average typing speed
Not sure whether your score is good? The average typing speed page puts it in context: about 40 WPM for adults, with typical ranges for students and for jobs such as data entry, transcription and programming, plus a one-minute test to measure yourself on the spot.
My progress dashboard
My progress collects everything you do on the site: every test result, personal bests per language and test length, XP and level, your daily streak, badges and a keyboard heat map of the keys you miss most. It lives in your browser, with no account. Use Export to save a backup file, or to move your progress to another computer, and Import to load it there.
How to use the tools together
- Run the keyboard tester once so you know every key works.
- Take a typing speed test, then check your weak keys in My progress.
- Practise, and use the WPM calculator to understand the speeds an exam or job asks for.
- When you hit your target, make a certificate of that result to mark it.
