Ookla Launches Speedtest Certified for Property Connectivity Verification

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2025 — Ookla on Monday announced the launch of Speedtest Certified, a new program designed to verify network quality for properties, giving building owners a way to demonstrate reliable connectivity.

“For years, people have trusted Speedtest for their own connectivity,” said Stephen Bye, CEO of Ookla, a division of Ziff Davis. “Now, with Speedtest Certified, we’re extending that trust to the places you visit.”

The program evaluates a range of factors, including network deployment, Wi-Fi radio frequency quality, network configuration, Wi-Fi security, performance metrics, and internet service provider backhaul. Properties that meet the standards will receive a certification intended to distinguish them from lower-performing networks.
