Companies use remote typists for several reasons. Transcriptionists, who play audio and video files and type out transcripts, and people who take paper-based documents and type them into a digital format - a job also known as data entry - are two of the most common positions. There are also people who use their typing skills for online technical or customer support.

There are several free-timed online typing tests that assess both metrics, such as Onlinetyping.org, Keyhero.com, and Typing.com.
