Speed-read any text one word at a time at a fixed focal point for calmer, more focused reading. Built with ADHD in mind. Dot is a calm, focused speed-reader. Instead of moving your eyes across lines of text, Dot shows the words to you, one at a time, at a single fixed point, so your eyes never travel. That removes the line-tracking and re-reading that make long reading tiring. Made with ADHD in mind: If reading a long article means losing your place, re-reading the same line, or bouncing off a wall of text before you start, Dot is built for you. It strips away the things that pull focus: • Your eyes never move. Every word appears in the same spot, so there's nothing to track and no place to lose. • One word at a time. No daunting wall of text, just steady, visible progress. • A calm, full-screen view with no clutter, at a pace you control. Dot isn't a medical device or a treatment. It's a reading tool designed to make focused reading feel easier. How it works: • Click the Dot icon to read the current page's article, or select any text and click. Dot reads exactly what you chose. • Right-click selected text and choose "Read selection with Dot". • A clean, full-screen reader opens over the page. Press Space to play or pause. Designed for comfortable reading: • A fixed focal point with the recognition letter highlighted, so your eyes stay still. Words snap into place rather than scrolling past. • A faint preview of the upcoming words for context, with adjustable opacity. • Adjustable speed (120 to 700 wpm), focal position, and a gentle ramp-up so you ease into pace. • Sentence peek: hold P to see the full current sentence, then carry on. • Your settings are remembered between reads. Private by design: • No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. • The text you read is processed locally in your browser and never leaves your device. • Dot only accesses a page when you ask it to. It requests no broad permissions and does not run in the background. Keyboard: Space play/pause, arrow keys jump/speed, P peek, Esc close.
