How It Works
Paste your text or upload a PDF file to extract text. The tool applies bionic reading formatting by bolding the first part of each word (typically 30-50% of letters). Your brain fixates on the bold parts, allowing faster reading while your peripheral vision completes the words. Adjust the bolding intensity with the slider (30% = light, 70% = heavy). Preview the formatted text and copy it or download as HTML file. The technique works best for longer texts like articles, ebooks, or documents. All processing happens in your browser.
