Ping test
Latency and jitter to the major clouds, measured from your browser. See who's closest and whether your line holds steady.

How to read it
Avg latency — typical round-trip delay. Under ~30 ms is excellent, ~30–80 ms is fine, over ~150 ms you'll feel it in calls and games.
Jitter — how much the delay bounces around. This is the silent killer: a "fast" connection with high jitter still stutters on video calls and live streams.
Compare the targets — if one cloud is far slower than the others, that path or peering is the weak link, not your whole connection.
FAQ
What does this ping test measure?
It times round-trip requests from your browser to the public edge of Cloudflare, Google, Amazon AWS and Microsoft, then shows the min, average, max and jitter for each. It pings each target about 15 times so you see the spread, not a single number.
Why are these numbers higher than a command-line ping?
Browser timing includes a little connection overhead, so absolute values run slightly higher than a native ping. The comparison between targets and the jitter are what matter, not the exact millisecond figure.
What is jitter and why does it matter?
Jitter is how much the round-trip delay bounces around. A fast connection with high jitter still stutters on video calls and live streams, so a low, steady latency matters more than a low average alone.
Is this free and private?
Yes. It's free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser. Pings go straight to each provider's own edge; nothing touches Acutis servers and nothing is stored.
Lag that comes and goes never shows up in a quick test. Acutis Go runs in the background and catches the exact moment your latency spikes — and tells you whether it's your Wi-Fi, your ISP, or the far end. Download Acutis Go — free →
