Build a custom typing test from any English or Hindi passage

StenoMitra’s custom dictation typing test is for learners who want practice that actually matches their target material. Paste the exact passage you want to improve.The tool runs in the browser and keeps your passage and result local to this device.

Practice the vocabulary you actually need

Turn previous-year papers, official notices, legal passages, coaching material, or difficult editorial text into a focused typing test.

Use English or Hindi keyboard layouts

Practice English typing or choose Mangal Inscript, Remington GAIL, and Krutidev for Hindi transcription workflows.

Review more than a single WPM score

Measure typing speed, accuracy, omissions, additions, spelling, capitalization, punctuation, keystrokes, and attempted words.

Repeat weak words instead of depending on generic passages

Generic typing sites help with warm-up, but exam practice usually needs formal vocabulary, names, dates, figures, punctuation, and department-specific language. Custom text practice lets you repeat exactly that material.

This is especially useful for SSC Stenographer transcription, railway and clerical skill tests, High Court recruitment, state PSC exams, and Hindi typing practice. You can choose your interface, use a fixed timer, and decide how punctuation or capitalization should be counted.

Practice previous-year typing passages and official notifications.
Create short drills from words you repeatedly mistype.
Compare WPM and accuracy across local retakes.
Focus on realistic material instead of random filler text.
