Readmax vs ReadMaxing

Readmax™ makes digital text easier to read, understand and remember. Just click on the Readmax app icon, and then go to a browser. Select text with your touchscreen cursor. Then, click “share” on the options shown for the selected text, and click the Readmax icon. In seconds, the selected text gets analyzed and reformatted into easy-to-read cascading phrases. Verbs are highlighted to boost comprehension. Readmax offers several backgrounds, font styles and sizes, and both vertical and horizontal screen views. You can also scan images of texts from your photo album and send them into Readmax. Low-vision readers can use Color Inversion for a dark background and lighter fonts. Readmax can also be licensed by teachers and tutors for groups of students, allowing each student to sign-on without disclosing their emails or other identifiable information. Based on over 20 years of research by investigators in cognitive science, vision science, and literacy technology at leading US universities, Readmax uses patented Live Ink® text parsing technology to instantly convert any user-selected text into a cascading-phrase layout. Live Ink® reveals and illuminates the structure of language that is masked by regular block formats. Our algorithms realign the words of a sentence into a powerful, compact, well-organized visual zone of information. By enlisting and activating the pattern recognition capabilities of the right brain, Live Ink frees up processing capacities in the left brain that focus on deeper dimensions of meaning. Live Ink's unique cascading layout maximizes "brain-width" by tapping the brain's natural powers of vision and grammar processing. Our technology is highly complex, technical, precise and nuanced, but the experience is natural and transparent. The research-proven results are greater comprehension, faster absorption of content and less eye strain. Designed to assist readers with low-vision and dyslexia, Live Ink has also been shown to strengthen students’ writing skills and reading proficiency, even after they return to regular formats. The Routledge Handbook of Corpora and English Language Teaching and Learning, (2022), recognizes Live Ink as the first and still the only technology using Automated Syntactic Analysis that has been scientifically proven to permanently strengthen English proficiency, with improvements persisting even after students are no longer using the technology. Live Ink has been recognized by the US Department of Educations’ What Works Clearinghouse as an effective and scientifically proven educational intervention that accelerates literacy growth, even after students return to block texts. Other groups reporting benefits include persons reading English as a non-native language, persons with brain injury and seniors. Learn more about our research at www.readmax.com

Read faster. Stay focused. Built for ADHD brains. Readmaxx displays one word at a time using RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation), a research-backed reading method that eliminates eye scanning and keeps your attention locked in. A 2025 Cambridge study found that ADHD adults comprehend 13% better with RSVP vs. traditional reading. readmaxx is built on this research — not productivity hype. HOLD TO READ The entire screen is your touch zone. Hold anywhere to start, lift your finger to pause. Reading becomes a physical, intentional action. TWO READING MODES • Context — the current paragraph appears below the word bar, so you never lose your place • Focus — just the word, nothing else on screen IMPORT ANYTHING EPUB books, PDF files, web articles by URL, or paste any text. SMART TIMING Automatic pauses at sentence ends, and paragraph breaks — backed by research showing these pauses are critical for RSVP comprehension. TACTILE FEEDBACK Feel the text structure through haptics: light taps at sentences, medium pulses at paragraphs, heavy thuds at chapters. READING STATS Track your daily words and minutes with encouraging milestones. NO ACCOUNTS. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Everything stays on your device. We collect zero data.
