## Description

Most people can read 3x faster than they think. Paste any text, upload any book. Steady Read delivers words at your optimal recognition point.

You can read faster than you think.

Steady Read shows you one word at a time, centered on the exact letter your brain naturally locks onto. No scanning. No re-reading. No losing your place. Just focus.

Start at 200 WPM. Work your way to 900. Most people surprise themselves on the first try.

Paste any text, or upload PDFs, EPUBs, DOC files, and more with Steady Read Pro. The words come to you, all you have to do is watch.

Built-in instrumental tracks that match your reading pace. Custom jazz and folk designed to keep you locked in without distraction. Skip tracks, repeat favorites, or turn it off entirely.

Set your pace from 60 to 1200 WPM. Scrub through your text. Pause anytime. Pick up exactly where you left off.

Traditional reading wastes time on eye movement (jumping between words, drifting to margins, re-reading lines you just read). Steady Read eliminates all of that. Your eyes stay still. Your brain does the rest.

Great for books, articles, meeting notes, research papers, study material, or anything you've been meaning to read but haven't found the time.
Free to use with pasted text. Upgrade to Pro to upload files — PDFs, EPUBs, DOC, DOCX, TXT, and ZIP.
