It shows one word at a time at a fixed point on screen, so you can read up to 3x faster and actually finish what you start.

HOW IT WORKS

Rapidly uses RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation), a technique that displays words sequentially at a fixed focal point. By reducing eye movement, it helps you stay focused and move through text faster. No more line-by-line scanning, just focused, fast reading.
