Rules and sources
- WPM
- Correct characters ÷ 5 ÷ seconds × 60. Only characters that are right in the final text count, so this is net WPM.Todok: ‘How the numbers are calculated’
- One word
- Any five characters, spaces included, make one word.Dhakal et al., CHI 2018 · Checked Oct 10, 2026
- Accuracy
- Correct key presses ÷ all key presses, judged the moment each key is pressed, so a mistake you fix still counts. Backspace is not counted.Todok: ‘How the numbers are calculated’
- Time
- The clock starts on your first key and pauses when the tab is hidden. The time is rounded to 0.1 s first, and WPM is worked out from that rounded time.Todok: ‘How the numbers are calculated’
- Wrong layout or Caps Lock
- Key presses made while the wrong-layout or Caps Lock notice is showing are left out of accuracy and missed keys.Todok: ‘How the numbers are calculated’
Typing sites do not all count the same way, and Todok does not claim its numbers match anyone else's.
