How fast do you actually type?

Words per minute uses the standard definition: one word equals five characters. We count your correctly typed characters, divide by five, and divide by your elapsed time in minutes. Mistyped characters don't count toward speed.

The average typist reaches about 40 WPM. Above 60 WPM is fast, above 80 WPM is professional-level, and over 100 WPM puts you in roughly the top few percent of typists.

Accuracy is correct characters divided by total keystrokes, including mistakes you later corrected. Backspacing fixes the text but the original mistyped keystroke still counts against accuracy.

A typing test measures typing. Pasting would defeat the purpose — and that's also the core idea behind Humanums: how text arrives in a document is measurable, and it's the difference between typed human writing and generated content.

Human typing has a rhythm: bursts, pauses at thinking points, corrections, and natural speed variation. Humanums captures those behavioral signals while you write and turns them into a signed certificate that your content is human-written.
