Most WPM tests only measure your hands.
This one measures your voice too.
By the time you finish typing this sentence, you could have said it three times over. Your voice is faster than your fingers will ever be.

The numbers
The average person types about 40 words per minute and speaks at 120 to 160. That gap doesn't show up in a typing test, because typing tests never ask about the alternative.
Put differently: an email that takes five minutes to type takes about ninety seconds to say. Across a normal working day of messages, emails, notes, and docs, the difference adds up to hundreds of hours a year.
Dictation used to mean fixing the transcript afterwards, which ate the savings. Modern speech models changed that. Superwhisper removes the filler words and formats for the app you're in, so what lands is what you meant to write.
