Swift Type for Institutions
Keyboard mastery your institution can actually measure.
Your students and staff already type every day. Swift Type turns that into taught, tracked, reportable progress — a 120 blocks across 8 weeks structured path, class-level analytics, and a verifiable credential at the end of it.
It keeps working when the connection does not. Practice runs on the device and syncs when the line comes back.

Everyone types. Almost nobody can prove they got better at it.
Typing is assumed, never taught
Students and staff type every day for coursework, exams, records, and reports. Almost nobody is taught to do it properly, and the cost shows up as slow work rather than as a visible failure.
Nothing is measured
An institution can say its learners use computers. It usually cannot say how fast they type, how accurately, whether that improved this term, or which learners are falling behind.
No evidence to report
A principal reporting to a board, an NGO reporting to a funder, and a bootcamp reporting to a partner all need the same thing: a document with before-and-after numbers in it.
It works in a real computer lab.
Practice survives the connection
Typing runs locally. A dropped line does not end a lesson — the session finishes on the device and syncs when the network returns.
Installs and reopens fast
Swift Type installs to the machine and reopens from a cached shell, so a lab period is not spent waiting on a first load across a shared line.
Built for shared machines
Learners sign in on any workstation and their history follows the account, not the computer. No per-machine setup, no per-machine licence.
Starts without an account
A learner can begin typing before a single account exists, and a class can be brought online with a 6-digit join code rather than an IT project.
Works without student email
Most secondary students have no working email. Import a class list and each learner gets a handle and a password from their instructor — on a normal account that stays theirs.
A tool that needs a good connection to teach typing is a tool that teaches typing on good days.
Six steps from a purchase order to a term report.
01Create the institution
One workspace for the school, faculty, centre, or company, with its own term calendar rather than ours.
02Create or claim teams
Each class, department, or cohort is a team. Teams that already exist are claimed and attached with every record intact.
03Invite learners
Learners join by invite or by a 6-digit code read out in the lab.
04Assign practice
Instructors assign work from the 120-block structured path, from 5 typing modes, or from 14 academic subjects.
05Monitor progress
Speed, accuracy, participation, and assignment completion roll up from every team into one institution view.
06Export the evidence
One term becomes one document: baseline against final results, participation, completion, certification readiness, and a recommendation. Download it as a spreadsheet for the bursary.
What you can report at the end of a term.
| The question | What is measured |
|---|---|
| Are learners getting faster? | Speed improvement Baseline average words per minute against current average, per learner, per class, and across the institution. |
| Are they getting more correct? | Accuracy improvement Baseline accuracy against current accuracy, with the count of learners above each threshold. Speed without accuracy is not progress. |
| Is anyone actually practising? | Consistency and participation Active learners this week, total practice time, and who has not started. |
| Is assigned work being done? | Assignment completion Completion rate per assignment and per class, so an instructor knows where to intervene before the term ends. |
| What exactly is holding them back? | Weakness reduction Per-key and per-letter-pair error data, which is what turns a score into a lesson plan. |
| Can any of them be certified? | Certification readiness How many learners are on track for the credential, measured against the same gate everyone else meets: 96% accuracy and 42 WPM on unseen text. |
All of it rolls up from your classes into one institution view, and one term exports as a single report: baseline against final results, participation, completion, certification readiness, and a recommendation you are free to disagree with.
Seven kinds of institution, one reason each.
- Primary or secondary school
- Computer studies becomes measurable. A term produces a document the principal can put in front of a board or a parent.
- Polytechnic or university
- Departments run keyboarding as a semester requirement with per-cohort evidence, without asking lecturers to build a curriculum.
- Bootcamp or training centre
- Typing speed maps directly to developer productivity. Cohorts arrive faster at the work you are actually there to teach.
- NGO or development programme
- Digital skills programmes need impact evidence per beneficiary, not attendance registers.
- Government programme
- Public skills initiatives report against milestones. Speed, accuracy, and participation are milestones that can be audited.
- Company or organisation
- Staff who type for a living get measurably faster, and the training budget gets a number rather than a feeling.
- Church or ministry
- Administrative volunteers and media teams handle records, notes, and correspondence at a pace that stops costing evenings.
The learner owns the account. The institution owns the aggregate.
The learner owns their account
Typing history, practice progress, goals, and rank belong to the learner permanently. An institution sees named individual detail only while that learner is an active member of one of its teams.
Leaving ends named access
When a learner leaves, the institution keeps anonymised aggregates and loses named access to that person. The learner keeps everything.
Private AI conversations stay private
Swift AI chats are never visible to an institution owner, an institution admin, or an instructor. There is no plan tier that changes this and no support override.
Nothing is published by default
There are no public institution reports and no cross-institution learner leaderboards. In a product sold to schools, those would be minors' names.
Role-based access inside the tenant
Owners, instructors, and members see what their role needs. Classroom mode hides real names from other learners entirely.
Every privileged action is recorded
Institution creation, plan changes, seat changes, team claims, and detachments are written to an audit trail the institution can be shown.
The full detail is in the privacy policy, including every third-party processor and what each one receives.
Your name on the certificate. Never your signature on the decision.
“Passed Swift Type's authenticated 2-minute unseen mixed-text keyboarding assessment at 42+ WPM and 96%+ accuracy after completing all weekly mastery gates.”
What an institution may add
- Your institution's name on the credential
- A principal or head signature block beside the Swift Type signatory
What no plan or pilot unlocks
- Bulk issuance to a class
- Granting the credential to a learner who has not passed
- Lowering, waiving, or overriding the threshold
That restriction is what makes the credential worth putting your name beside. Every certificate carries an ID and a public verification page anyone can check.
Priced by term, not by month.
