Type Race — Multiplayer Typing Speed Competition
Type faster than everyone in the room
Type Race is a real-time typing speed competition where all players type the same passage as fast and accurately as possible. Words per minute and accuracy are tracked live, and the leaderboard shows where every player stands in real time. Type Race is used in typing skill development programs, keyboarding classes, and productivity workshops. It is also popular as an engaging activity in computer science classrooms and coding bootcamps where typing speed directly impacts learning throughput. The competitive live format creates genuine motivation to improve — watching your rank update in real time as you type is a uniquely compelling driver of effort.
