RaccoonType exists to make typing faster, more accurate, and more competitive. Learn about the product principles, the team, and what we build.
Most typing test websites were built in the era of the 60-second WPM benchmark. They measure one number, show it on a leaderboard, and stop there. That model ignores everything that actually matters about typing: raw WPM, accuracy, consistency over time, weakness patterns, and the specific challenges of typing real code.
RaccoonType was built to close that gap. The typing test is the entry point, not the product. Around it sits a competitive platform — ranked ELO, party races, tournaments, boss trials, daily challenges, clan wars — and a coaching layer — an 8-category Typing DNA analysis with AI-generated personalized drills. Each piece is a tool for the same goal: measurable, sustainable improvement in typing performance.
We are not building a generic typing test. We are building a performance platform for typists who care about the numbers.
RaccoonType measures WPM, raw WPM, accuracy, and consistency on every test. We show you the numbers that actually predict faster typing — and we don't bury them in decorative UI.
Solo typing practice plateaus. Adding structured competition — ranked ELO, party races, daily challenges, boss trials — gives the practice a reason to happen. RaccoonType is built for typists who want to get better, not just type.
RaccoonType's AI Coach produces personalized custom drills from your own session history. It doesn't generate fake scores, inflate metrics, or promise overnight improvement. The coaching is grounded in the deterministic 8-category Typing DNA model — the AI just personalizes the targets.
Your typing data is yours. We don't sell session telemetry to third parties, we don't require an account to take a test, and you can use RaccoonType as a guest. Sign-in is opt-in for sync, leaderboards, and AI drill generation.

RaccoonType is a performance-oriented typing platform that combines a free typing test, real-time multiplayer party races, ranked ELO matchmaking, an 8-category AI Typing Coach, code-typing practice in 14 programming languages, a daily global challenge, boss trials, tournaments, and seasonal clan wars — all in one product.
RaccoonType is built by a small team of typists, competitive gamers, and software engineers. The product is opinionated: the team uses RaccoonType daily to measure and improve their own typing.
Yes. The typing test, multiplayer races, ranked ladder, daily challenge, and AI Coach are all free to use. You can optionally sign in to sync progress across devices, earn seasonal XP, and join clans.
RaccoonType does not sell session telemetry to third parties. AI Coach drill generation uses an LLM provider only for signed-in users who opt in to custom drill requests; the audio analysis happens locally in your browser using the Web Audio API. See the Privacy page for details.
