    This is really cool! I've tried speed reading apps before but they always felt unnatural. 900wpm is impressive if it maintains comprehension.

    A few thoughts after trying it: - The visual design is clean and doesn't distract from reading - Would love to see reading comprehension tests built in (to verify you're actually retaining at 900wpm) - Maybe add a "warm-up mode" that gradually increases speed?

    The viral aspect is smart - people love sharing their WPM scores. Have you thought about adding a leaderboard or social sharing features?

    Great work on this! Bookmarking to use for catching up on long articles.

      it does actually ramp up to top speed but maybe could be slower
