Throughline Speed Reader

Read faster while comprehending more. Throughline presents text one word at a time with intelligent pacing that adapts to natural language rhythms.

VARIABLE PACING ENGINE
Unlike basic RSVP readers that show every word for the same duration, Throughline adjusts timing dynamically:
• Punctuation creates natural pauses — longer at periods, brief at commas
• Complex words get extra display time
• Paragraph breaks give you time to absorb ideas
• Not fixed-interval timing — pacing adapts continuously word by word

ORP ALIGNMENT
Each word displays with its Optimal Recognition Point at a fixed position on screen:
• Your eyes never move — words come to you
• The red pivot letter marks the optimal focus point
• Eliminates the saccadic jumps that slow traditional reading
• Find your ideal reading pace and keep pushing further

WARMUP & COOLDOWN
• Start each session at a comfortable pace
• Gradually accelerate to your target speed
• Cooldown ramp slows gently at the end of texts
• Circular toolbar gauge shows ramp progress during warmup and cooldown
• Configurable duration and intensity
