Verified certification
A standardized, invigilated evaluation. Pass it and you get a signed PDF certificate with a QR code an employer can check.
Before you begin
These conditions are enforced by the app and recorded with the result
Pasting is disabled
Paste and drop events are blocked inside the typing canvas. An attempt voids the run.
The window must stay focused
Switching tabs or applications for more than two seconds voids the run. Shorter interruptions are recorded on the result.
Keystroke timing is analysed
The rhythm of your typing is checked for machine-generated regularity. Speed and accuracy are recalculated on the server from the raw keystroke stream, not taken from the browser.
Corrections are allowed
Backspace works normally. Accuracy counts your first attempt at each character, which is what a corrected error costs you in real work.
Candidate details
The length is printed on the certificate. A one-minute run is quicker but proves less about sustained speed.
What the evaluation involves
You type a continuous prose passage for 1, 3 or 5 minutes, under conditions the app enforces and records alongside the result. The passage is ordinary business English rather than random words — punctuation, capitalisation and full sentences — because that is what the roles asking for a typing speed actually involve, and a score over random common words flatters a typist in a way an employer would not recognise.
Nothing is uploaded while you type. The keystroke log stays in your browser and is sent once, at the end, so the server can re-derive the result independently rather than trust a number the page reports. If the two disagree, the server’s figures are the ones that count.
How it is graded
Accuracy gates every band as well as speed. A fast run littered with errors does not outrank a slower clean one, because an employer reading the certificate cares about usable output, and unusable characters are not output. You are placed in the highest band whose speed and accuracy thresholds are both met.
| Grade | Net WPM | Accuracy | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| S-Tier / Master | 90+ | 97%+ | Professional transcription standard. Sustained speed with near-perfect accuracy. |
| A-Tier / Expert | 75+ | 95%+ | Well above the requirement for data entry and customer support roles. |
| B-Tier / Advanced | 60+ | 92%+ | Meets the common 60 WPM threshold for administrative positions. |
| C-Tier / Proficient | 45+ | 88%+ | Comfortable working speed for general office correspondence. |
| D-Tier / Developing | — | — | Below the typical administrative requirement. |
Net WPM counts only the characters you got right: correct characters, divided by five, divided by minutes. It is the figure an employer should care about, and the one printed on the certificate.
What the employer actually sees
The certificate is a PDF carrying your name, net speed, accuracy, grade, the evaluation length, a consistency score, the issue date and a verification ID. Page two adds a short diagnosis of how steady your rhythm was, so the document says something about how you type rather than only how fast.
Its QR code resolves to a verification page on this site showing the same figures. That page recomputes the signature rather than looking the certificate up, so any edit to the name, speed, accuracy or date breaks it and the page reports the document as altered. There is no database of holders to query, and nothing about you is stored here — the signed document is the record.
Why that matters more than the number
Every applicant writes a typing speed on their CV, and a recruiter can check none of them. A result they can confirm themselves, in a few seconds, without asking you for anything, is doing work that a claimed figure cannot — which is the whole reason to have a certificate rather than a screenshot.
Common questions
- Is the typing certificate free?
- Yes. The evaluation and the signed PDF cost nothing, and there is no account to create. The only limit is a cap of 3 certificates per network per day, which exists to stop automated abuse.
- What typing speed do I need to pass?
- There is no pass mark. Every completed run issues a certificate stating the grade it earned, from Developing upward — the document reports what you did rather than judging whether it was enough, because what counts as enough depends entirely on the job.
- Can I retake the evaluation?
- Yes, up to the daily limit, and you should if a run does not reflect what you can hold reliably. A certificate is more useful when it shows a speed you can repeat than a lucky peak.
- How does an employer verify the certificate?
- They scan the QR code or open the link printed on it. That page recomputes the signature over the certificate's contents and reports whether they have been altered since issue. It requires no account and nothing from you.
- Does the certificate expire?
- It carries an issue date and remains verifiable indefinitely, but a recent one is more persuasive — typing speed moves in both directions, and an employer reading a two-year-old certificate is right to wonder which way yours went.
