Most readers never realize how much they re-read. It happens in a fraction of a second — your eyes land on a word, drift forward, then snap back to check something they already captured. Researchers call it a regression. It wastes ten to fifteen percent of your reading time without improving comprehension. The fix is simple: a pacer that keeps your eyes moving forward. Something as basic as a highlighted word group, sliding across the page at a steady rhythm, trains the eye to trust its first pass. Within a few sessions, the backward glances fade. You stop losing time. The same page that took five minutes takes three — and you remember just as much.

§ 01How it works
Three steps. Ten seconds.
02
Read
The pacer highlights words at your speed. Your eyes follow. No going back.
03
Train
8 minutes of daily drills build lasting speed. Comprehension included.
§ 02The training
The pacer makes you faster.
The drills make it permanent.
Three drills, eight minutes a day. They run on the same articles you paste into the reader.
Drill 01 · RSVP
2:30Kill the inner voice.
Words flash one at a time at a target pace. The optimal recognition point is highlighted in orange — the letter your eye fixates fastest. Subvocalization can't keep up. After two weeks, it fades.

Drill 02 · Meta-guide
3:00Stop your eyes from going back.
A pacer underlines three-word chunks at a steady tempo. Your eye learns to keep moving forward. Regressions drop. Comprehension stays.

Quick jumps between fixation points train peripheral letter recognition. You start taking in chunks instead of words.

Where most adults read. The number you finished school at — and the one you've kept since.

What sustained training reliably reaches with comprehension intact. Higher is possible; this is the honest range.
¼s

How long your eye pauses on each chunk. Train the size of the chunk, not the length of the pause.
3–5×
words per fixation, trained
Trained readers absorb this many words in a single glance. Untrained readers usually take in one.
Numbers above reflect ranges established by decades of eye-tracking research. Not every technique works for every reader — your training plan picks the ones that move your number.

§ 05Questions
Some honest answers.
Does speed-reading really work, or is it pseudo-science?+
Both, depending on what you mean. Marketing-grade "1,000 wpm with 100% comprehension" claims don't hold up. But systematically training subvocalization, regression, and fixation span — backed by real eye-tracking research — reliably moves readers from ~250 to ~450–550 wpm with intact comprehension. That's what we train for.
Will I lose comprehension?+
If you push too hard, yes. That's why every session ends with a comprehension check — your target speed throttles back automatically if accuracy drops below 80%. Speed without understanding is just scrolling.
Can I train on my own articles?+
Yes. Paste any article or text and the pacer will guide you through it — that works on Free, unlimited. Pro adds file uploads (EPUB, PDF, DOCX), Listen mode with AI voices, and the full training drill library.
How long until I see results?+
Most readers add 60–100 wpm in the first two weeks. The bigger gains come in weeks 3–8 once your training plan has calibrated to you.
What devices?+
Web app — works on any device with a browser, including mobile. A Chrome extension and native apps are on the roadmap.
Why $9.99?+
Two reasons. One: training works only if you keep showing up, so we built it to charge less than a coffee. Two: we don't sell ads or your reading data. The subscription is the business.
