About
Read Faster. Stay Focused.
Spodic. is a speed reader. It shows text one word at a time at a fixed point on the screen, so your eyes stop jumping across lines and you read significantly faster without losing focus.
How it works
Every word appears in the same place. One letter, the optimal recognition point, is marked in red and framed by two thin lines. Your eyes rest there and the words come to you.
The pace follows the text. Spodic pauses a little longer after sentences, commas, paragraphs and long words, and you set the speed yourself.
What you can read
- Any text you paste in
- PDF, EPUB, DOCX, TXT, Markdown and HTML files
- Articles from any website, saved with the browser extension
Citations and reference lists in papers are skipped automatically. Your library and reading position sync across devices.
Who it's for
Students and researchers with more reading than time. Spodic makes reading itself faster. It doesn't summarize the text away.
The name
"Spood" comes from the Dutch word spoed, meaning hurry. To spood something is to read it with Spodic.
