About Saccade - Read Faster
Read faster. Absorb wisdom. Saccade trains your eyes to move efficiently through text while feeding your mind with ideas that last. Just 2 minutes a day. Not just speed. Substance. Every session uses real passages from history's greatest thinkers—or your own texts. Import articles, books, PDFs, or anything you want to read faster. Train with Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Plato, Shakespeare, Dostoevsky, Emerson, Thoreau, and more. How it works: 1. Focus on the red anchor letter. 2. Your peripheral vision naturally captures the surrounding text. This method trains controlled eye movements called saccades. Speed reading champions use it to reduce fixation and eliminate backtracking. You read smoother, faster, and with less effort. Progression that compounds: • Start at 250 WPM. Progress beyond 600. • Adaptive levels: The app pushes you slightly past your comfort zone. • Real comprehension: Identify phrases after each passage to confirm understanding. 300+ Curated Passages: • Stoicism: Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus • Transcendentalism: Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman • Literature: Dostoevsky, Dickens, Austen • Wisdom: Plato, Montaigne, Tolstoy, Twain Import Your Own Texts: • Paste text or import files (TXT, PDF) • Share from Safari, Chrome, or any app • Automatic passage splitting for optimal training Features: • Daily sessions that fit any schedule • Track your personal best WPM & streaks • Three modes: Training (Steady), Sprint (1.5x XP), and Endurance (2x XP) Why it works: Traditional reading is inefficient. Eyes jump and backtrack. Saccade trains deliberate eye movement so reading becomes fluid. Most users see improvement within the first week. Saccade Pro: • Second chance on challenges • Detailed progress & accuracy charts • Full stats dashboard • Unlimited document imports Download now. Read faster. Think deeper.
