One word at a time.
Instead of scanning lines of text with your eyes, words appear one at a time in a fixed position. This removes unnecessary eye movement and reduces fatigue.

Read Faster & Stay Focused
readrrr is built around a scientific reading method called Rapid Serial Visual Presentation. Words appear one at a time in a fixed position, so your eyes stay still and your focus stays locked.
hold to read
You are reading this one word at a time. Your eyes are not moving — they stay locked on the red letter while each word comes to you. This is how readrrr lets you read up to three times faster, without losing comprehension. Notice how comfortable this feels. Now try moving the slider up.

How it works
RSVP, explained.
Rapid Serial Visual Presentation removes the eye-movement overhead of normal reading — and replaces it with focus.
Lock onto the focal point.
Each word has one highlighted letter — the optimal recognition point. Your eye locks onto it, so you focus entirely on processing each word.
Faster than you think.
Your brain can process information faster than you might expect. Many people are surprised by how comfortable this feels.
