What Speeedy is
Speeedy is a web app for reading text one word at a time with RSVP speed reading and ORP alignment. Its homepage describes reading speeds of 200–600+ WPM. You can import PDF, DOCX, DOC, TXT, Markdown, RTF, HTML, CSV, ODT, and EPUB files, then use adaptive word timing, contextual pauses, or speed ramping to shape the pace. Bionic Reading and peripheral context words offer additional ways to present text. Reading options include an OpenDyslexic-style display, Irlen-style tinted overlays, and support for right-to-left text. Focus tools include a Pomodoro timer, ambient noise, reading sounds, and 20-20-20 reminders. A reading benchmark, session history, WPM trends, streaks, daily goals, and comprehension exercises help readers follow their progress. The maker says no account is required and reading data stays in the browser; the app stores it in IndexedDB and supports .speeedy backup import and export. Speeedy can be installed as a PWA, with offline-friendly asset caching. Sharing public reading profile links and exporting stat cards are optional. Its source code is MIT-licensed. The Free plan costs nothing, billed Free forever, with no paid tiers.
