These account for up to 80% of reading time. RSVP eliminates both by presenting words at a fixed focal point, dramatically reducing cognitive load and increasing throughput. Bionic Reading works with your brain's natural word recognition patterns. By emphasizing the beginning of words, your brain can "fill in" the rest, allowing faster processing while maintaining comprehension. THE SCIENCE Studies show that most people can double or triple their reading speed with RSVP training while maintaining 80-90% comprehension. The key is eliminating inefficient eye movements and reducing subvocalization (the inner voice that "speaks" words as you read). GETTING STARTED Start at a comfortable pace (250-300 WPM) and gradually increase speed over a few sessions. Your brain will adapt quickly. Most users achieve 400-600 WPM within a week of regular practice. Support: ludicrousread.com/help Privacy Policy: ludicrousread.com/privacy Transform your reading today.
