What is TypeSprint?

A browser-based typing platform that combines timed typing tests with real-time multiplayer races. Players can take a 30-second sprint or a longer 1, 3, 5 or 10-minute test, with scores going onto global and daily leaderboards. Races pit up to eight players against each other, and custom tests can be shared with others using a six-character join code.

Alongside the tests, there is a touch-typing course of 60 guided lessons that build up from the home row, with stars and coins earned along the way. Separate lesson tracks cover QWERTY, QWERTZ (including ö, ä and ü) and Spanish (including ñ and accents) keyboards, and the interface itself runs in English, German and Spanish.

Teachers can set up a class in a few minutes; students join with a six-character code, and lesson results appear on a live dashboard. Typing tests and races work without an account, but a free account is needed to save progress and to access the course and classes. The platform is free with no ads or paid tier, is operated from Vienna, Austria, and states that it is GDPR-compliant.
