Broadcast delivery intelligence for creators
Beta presenter speed test — generate or pick a broadcast-style passage, read aloud with a live timer, and get WPM, delivery level, teleprompter settings, and show capacity metrics.
Pick a format and passage length, read aloud with the timer, then review your WPM and delivery profile. Library passages work without generation.
This tool is temporarily offline for updates. Fields are read-only until service resumes.
Pick a broadcast format, passage length, optional topic, and timer or optional voice measurement mode.
Generate a fresh passage with AI or use a free library passage — then read it aloud in the teleprompter panel.
Use Start reading and Done to measure WPM, broadcast level, teleprompter settings, show capacity, and a shareable badge.
A good on-camera reading speed depends on format and audience. Documentary and podcast presenters often read between 100 and 130 words per minute, YouTube explainers commonly sit between 131 and 150 WPM, and TV news anchors typically land between 151 and 175 WPM before pacing adjustments for breaks and packages.
Teleprompter speed is usually expressed as a percentage of a 150 WPM baseline — that is why AirSpeed reports teleprompter speed as round((WPM / 150) × 100). Scroll rate follows a simple lines-per-minute estimate based on roughly seven words per line.
Planning a bulletin or show by word count is easier when you know your personal pace. The bulletin calculator applies format-specific presenter-read ratios so you can estimate words to script, segment counts, and presenter airtime for durations from five to 120 minutes.

Most TV news anchors land between 151 and 175 words per minute. Documentary and podcast voices often sit between 100 and 130 WPM, while YouTube explainers commonly fall between 131 and 150 WPM. AirSpeed classifies your result against these broadcast bands.
After your timed read, AirSpeed calculates teleprompter speed as a percentage of a 150 WPM baseline — so 150 WPM equals 100%. Scroll rate is estimated at roughly one line per seven words.
Use the bulletin content calculator with your measured WPM and show duration. It applies format-specific presenter-read ratios to estimate words to script and segment counts.
No. Timer mode never uses a microphone. Optional voice mode may use browser speech recognition on your device for assistive feedback only — nothing is recorded, uploaded, or stored.
Professional bulletin anchors typically read between 151 and 175 WPM. AirSpeed labels that band as TV news anchor pace and uses it as the teleprompter baseline reference.
