## What is SpeedyRead?

Read 3x faster - one word at a time.

SpeedyRead uses RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) to present text word by word at a fixed focal point. Each word is positioned so the pivot letter - the character your brain uses for instant recognition - is highlighted in your chosen accent colour. Your eyes stay still. Your brain absorbs faster than ever.

Thousands of readers have already discovered that speed reading isn't about skipping words - it's about removing the bottleneck that slows you down: eye movement.
