## What is Readfast?

Readfast helps you read faster without sacrificing comprehension.

It uses RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) technology to eliminate wasted eye movement by showing one word at a time, centred on your natural focal point. This lets you focus fully on the text and absorb information significantly faster than traditional reading.

Most people start around 250 words per minute. With Readfast, reaching 600–750 WPM is realistic with regular use.

How it works

• Upload or paste any text
• Hit play
• Words are displayed one at a time, guided by the Optimal Recognition Point (ORP)
• Adjust speed at any time and train your brain to read faster over time

No skimming. No distractions. Just focused reading.

What you can read

• Articles from the web
• Blog posts, newsletters, and long-form content
• PDFs, DOCX, EPUB, TXT files
• Notes, papers, and research

If you can copy it or upload it, you can read it in Readfast.

Key features

• Proven RSVP speed-reading technology
• ORP highlighting to guide eye focus
• Adjustable reading speed
• Clean, distraction-free reader
• Progress tracking to see your improvement
• Works great for studying, research, and daily reading

Who it’s for

• Students who read a lot
• Professionals buried in documents
• Anyone trying to stay informed without spending hours reading
• People who want to build a real speed-reading habit, not just skim
