I am looking for a piece of software that will keep track of how many characters I type throughout the day.

The obvious thing that comes to mind is a keylogger, but honestly I don't feel safe using a keylogger and doubt that it will have exactly what I am looking for.

I just want to be able to open up the program and see that I've typed 200,000 characters, or however many I've typed since I last reset the counter. I am looking for something that is relatively simple, but gets the job done. I am using Windows 10.

You can use WhatPulse:

  • Most features are free
  • Windows/Mac/Linux
  • Stats are available online as well as on the desktop client (from which you can export them as CSV).
  • Support several computers
  • It records the number of keystrokes per application:

  • Keyboard heatmap:
