Typing speed test
Test your typing speed, then say the same message aloud. Find out how much time your voice could save.
Can we move our call to Thursday morning? I will send the updated notes tonight, so we can use the time to decide what comes next. Let me know if ten works for you.
Type the message as you normally would. The clock starts with your first character.

Compare two ways to write.
Typing is familiar. Speaking may get the words out faster. This test puts both on the same message so you can compare your own pace.
Try a few rounds. Read-aloud results measure speaking alone; a dictation round also includes waiting for the text and correcting it. The useful number is how long it takes to get a message you can use.

How is typing speed calculated?
Typing speed is measured in words per minute (WPM), with five characters counted as one word. The score counts matching characters and includes time spent correcting mistakes. Capitalization, punctuation, and repeated spaces are ignored for accuracy. This is a short practice test, so try a few messages for a better sense of your pace.
What does the voice comparison measure?
Speak aloud mode times you reading the same message. It does not record or transcribe you, and it excludes recognition delay and editing. Use dictation mode measures the text entered by your own dictation app, including its processing time and any corrections you make. Both modes are labeled in the results.
How is time saved estimated?
Before you try your voice, the comparison uses an adjustable estimate of 150 spoken words per minute. After a voice round, it uses your measured time. Monthly savings apply those rates to your chosen daily word count over 22 writing days. The starting value of 2,500 words is adjustable, so set it to fit your day. Thinking, pauses between tasks, and other work are not included.
Do I need Auri to take the test?
No. You can take the typing test and time your speaking without installing anything. To measure completed dictation, use Apple Dictation, Auri Voice, or another app you already have. Try the same message with each app to compare your own results.
Is my typing or voice uploaded?
This page scores text in your browser and does not record audio. It sends no test text to Auri. If you use a dictation app, that app’s processing and privacy settings apply. Auri receives basic tool-use and download-click events, without the text you enter.
Can I take the test on my phone?
Yes. The mobile version uses the same comparison with instructions for your phone’s keyboard and dictation. You can type, swipe, and use your normal keyboard suggestions.
Speak in the app you’re already using.
Email, messages, notes, or your next prompt. Choose a shortcut, say what you mean, and let Auri Voice put polished text at your cursor.
