Reading Speed Calculator

Calculates your reading speed in words per minute (WPM) from a pasted text or a manually entered word count, and the time it took you (in minutes and seconds). Optionally, once your speed is known, estimates the reading time for a second text. It only shows the calculations — it never classifies you as slow, fast, or anything else.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as the typing speed test?
No. The typing speed test measures how many words you type per minute; this calculator measures your READING speed from a text and how long it took you to read it.
Does it tell me if I read fast or slow?
No. It only shows the words-per-minute calculation, without classifying or judging your result.
