TypeDash
When you want your typing to go somewhere.
Monkeytype is a strong choice for focused, configurable typing tests. TypeDash is an alternative for the moments when you want to turn that practice into a visual race.
Choose the experience you want today
TypeDash is built around reaching the finish: type a passage, move your runner, and race again. Monkeytype puts the test itself at the center, with extensive configuration, personal records and detailed results.
| What matters to you | TypeDash | Monkeytype |
|---|---|---|
| Main experience | Passage-to-finish racing with rooftop runners. | Minimal, highly configurable typing tests. |
| Practice goal | Finish the passage, improve the run, or challenge a friend. | Customize a test and work on speed, consistency and personal records. |
| Visual presentation | Animated 3D runners with an optional 2D view. | A focused text-first interface with theme and display customization. |
| Results | WPM, accuracy, race time, saved runs and replay analysis in this browser. | Detailed test results and account-based result history. |
What about Monkeytype multiplayer?
Monkeytype’s official Tribe development surface includes matchmaking and custom rooms. It also carries a development warning and uses separate test accounts. We don’t claim Monkeytype has no multiplayer.
TypeDash’s distinction is its rooftop-runner race, private rooms and asynchronous recorded challenges. Pick the game feel you prefer.
Keep Monkeytype for the tests you love
If you want a tightly configured timed test, a minimal practice screen or extensive typing-test history, Monkeytype may fit better. TypeDash’s passage races are not a replacement for every benchmark, and WPM from different test rules is not automatically comparable.
TypeDash is worth trying when you want to race other players or send a completed run to a friend. No account signup is required; your saved runs currently belong to this browser’s game identity.
