Differences Between Free and PLUS Accounts

Edited

We take pride in offering a free product that positively impacts millions of educators and students, providing an exceptional educational experience. Here’s a glimpse of what you gain with our PLUS account:

Why Choose PLUS?

  • Ad-Free Experience: PLUS is 100% ad-free, so pages load faster and nothing competes with the lesson.

  • A Much Wider Curriculum: free accounts get Learn to Type - the lessons, tests and games. PLUS adds Digital Citizenship, Technology Foundations, AI Literacy, Computer Applications, Cross-Curricular, Creative Writing, Coding & Computational Thinking and Test Prep, plus extra content inside Learn to Type itself.

  • Unlimited Data Retention: free accounts keep student data for 70 days. PLUS keeps it for as long as you have the license.

  • Transferable Licenses: Student "seats" (licenses) are transferable. If a student leaves your class, their seat can be reassigned to another student.

PLUS Exclusive Features

  • Create Assignments: Fine-tune student progress with assignable lessons, tests, and games.

  • Written Prompt lessons and the richer lesson screens: custom lessons themselves are free - anyone can build a Lesson or a Test out of standard typing screens. PLUS adds the Written Prompt lesson type, and the screen types beyond Standard: Advanced, Keyboard Jump, Falling Letters, Block Letters and Coding.

  • Dedicated Account Management: Enjoy dedicated account support for a seamless experience.

  • Real-Time Monitoring: View live student activity and progress from your desk.

  • Auto Grading: Save time with customizable speed and accuracy thresholds.

  • Customized Benchmarking: Control lesson progression with tailored speed and accuracy minimums.

  • Daily Goals: Set daily practice time goals to encourage consistent typing practice.

  • Deeper Problem Keys Practice: Typing.com tracks the keys a student misses most and has TypeAI write practice stories around them. PLUS students can drill three and four of those keys at once, not just two.

  • Priority Support: phone and email, with a guaranteed first response. Free accounts are supported by email.

Additional Benefits

  • Individualized Settings: free accounts set things at class level. PLUS sets them per student too, so a plan can follow one child's IEP.

  • Bulk Discounts: available for teachers, schools and districts. For a price quote, or to compare the plans row by row, see the PLUS page.
