keytype is a free typing speed test and touch typing trainer. Measure your words per minute (WPM) and accuracy in real time across 30, 60 and 120 second tests. No account, no ads, no premium tier — open the page and start typing immediately.
keytype offers three distinct modes to match every stage of your typing journey.
The average person types at 40 words per minute. Reaching 60 to 80 WPM — roughly the speed of a proficient typist — can save hours of work per week. Beyond raw speed, higher accuracy reduces backspacing and re-reading, which further accelerates productivity. Touch typing, where all ten fingers are used without looking at the keyboard, is the most effective method to reach these speeds because it eliminates the bottleneck of searching for each key visually.
Practice typing in English, Russian (Русский), Spanish (Español), German (Deutsch), French (Français) and a dedicated Code mode for programming symbols, operators and keywords. Each language renders its native keyboard layout on the on-screen visualization, so you always see the correct finger placement for each key. The UI language and the typing language can be set independently in settings.
An interactive on-screen keyboard highlights the next key you need to press and animates each keystroke in real time. This visual guide is especially useful when learning touch typing because it trains your eyes to read text rather than look at your hands. The visualization supports all six language layouts and uses colour to distinguish correct keystrokes from errors.
Set a daily session goal of 1, 3, 5 or 10 typing sessions per day. A progress bar shows how close you are to your goal each day, and a streak counter tracks how many consecutive days you have met it. Research on habit formation shows that short daily practice sessions produce faster skill gains than occasional long sessions, which is why the streak system in keytype is designed to encourage regular, consistent practice. All history and personal bests are stored locally in the browser — no server, no account required.
keytype ships with six colour themes — Dark, Matrix, Ocean, Rose, Paper and Nord — so you can choose the visual environment that helps you focus. Optional sound effects mimic mechanical keyboards, soft keys or a classic typewriter and can be toggled and volume-adjusted in settings. A smooth cursor animation option and adjustable font size round out the personalisation options.
