▸Your typing speed is 12,000 KPH (40.0 WPM).
- At 40.0 WPM, you generate 12,000 keystrokes per hour, placing you in the expert range (12,000 KPH and above).
- Typing 6 hours per day, you accumulate about 72,000 keystrokes daily and 360,000 over a 5-day work week.
- Your rate exceeds the commonly cited ergonomic sustained-typing guideline of 10,000 KPH. Consider regular breaks and wrist stretches to reduce repetitive strain risk.
Next stepAt expert level, maintaining accuracy is more important than raw speed. Focus on low-error output for long-form work.
