What Human Benchmark actually is

A set of short browser tests covering reaction time, visual memory, number memory, typing speed, aim training and verbal memory. Each takes well under a minute and then plots your result on a distribution built from tens of millions of previous attempts.

Why it is worth your time

Landing at the fortieth percentile for reaction time is a small and very specific humbling that no general brain-training app ever manages to deliver.

We built one too
