Browser-local speed test
Free dictation speed test
Time a real voice-typing sample and calculate words per minute. Use your own dictation software; this page only measures the resulting text.
00:00.0
Measured pace
0 words in 0 seconds.
Include correction time if you want an effective workflow speed.
Method and limits
Use the result as a measurement, not a promise.
- Place the cursor in the dictated-text box and prepare your usual microphone and dictation tool.
- Start the timer, dictate a representative passage, then finish the test.
- Correct obvious recognition errors before finishing if correction is normally part of your workflow.
- Repeat three times and compare both speed and correction burden.
What a useful speed score includes
Raw recognition speed can look impressive while corrections consume the gain. A realistic test uses the microphone, room, vocabulary, application, punctuation, and review behavior from the actual task.
Words per minute is calculated as word count divided by elapsed minutes. Very short samples swing dramatically, so use at least one minute when comparing setups.
