RSVP Reader Online — Free Rapid Serial Visual Presentation

RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) flashes one word at a time on a fixed point so you stop horizontal eye scanning. SpeedRead adds Optimal Recognition Point (ORP) alignment, punctuation-aware pacing, and optional synced TTS.

How RSVP speed reading works

Traditional reading forces saccades across each line. RSVP removes that motion: words appear in the same place, timed by your WPM setting. SpeedRead highlights the ORP letter (usually near the start of the word) so recognition happens without hunting for the word center.

How to use this RSVP reader

1. Paste text, upload PDF/EPUB/TXT, run image OCR, or extract a public URL.
2. Click Start Reading — RSVP Mode is the default.
