Why SwiftRead

The complete reading optimization toolkit

Unlike speed reading gimmicks, SwiftRead uses science-backed techniques shown to increase reading speed, comprehension, and focus.

Read at the speed of thought.

Use different reading modes to eliminate subvocalization and triple your reading speed.

The human brain is capable of processing information at extraordinary speeds, far beyond what traditional reading allows. Strip out subvocalization and you stay locked in flow. The potential for growth becomes infinite when you give your mind the right tools to absorb more in every glance.

Letter from the Founder

In college, my professors liked to torture their students by assigning mountains of reading.

Yet, I actually wanted to do the reading, not only because I wanted to do well in class but also because I loved learning. Outside of class, I loved reading books, articles, and papers about my favorite topics. I just couldn't keep up with all that I wanted to read and learn.

So I built SwiftRead to help me instantly 3X my reading speed and breeze through all my reading in a fraction of the time.

SwiftRead is now a top-rated reading app and used by more than 300,000 readers in over 100 different countries.

It's my mission to help people everywhere unlock their potential through better reading and learning. I'm excited to keep improving SwiftRead. I'd love for you to give SwiftRead a try.
