Test your internet speed. Join the global board. Flex on your ISP.

How it works

• Runs a browser-based download speed test: 6 parallel streams pulling from Cloudflare's edge for 8 seconds, TCP slow-start discarded, reported speed = best sustained 2-second window (fast.com methodology)
• Signs you in anonymously (Firebase Auth) and saves your best speed to a global leaderboard (Firestore) — one doc per human, usernames reserved transactionally
• Ranks are live — the board updates in realtime as people test, with rank numbers computed by server-side aggregation
• Optionally claim your rank with Google so it survives any device
• The giant digits are hand-built block-matrix glyphs — no display font, just a bitmap and CSS grid

Stack

• Next.js 14 (App Router)
• Chakra UI + Framer Motion
• Firebase — anonymous auth + Firestore

Running locally
