Plug-in that highlights key text to make reading faster

Think "Enhanced Skimming". Readsy makes reading web-content faster by highlighting key parts-of-speech. This allows readers to skip over prepositions, conjunctions, etc. and focus on key words for general comprehension (i.e. nouns, verbs, adjectives).

This looks interesting. Been to a fast reading course before, but this seems so much more easy to apply and adaptable. Congrats on the launch!

@bengido thanks Bengi! I've never been to a live course before but I've tried several different methods. Some success, but nothing I was able to stick with. Hope Readsy helps you and I'd definitely be interested in any feedback you have regarding features to make the extension better.

I blackened all the filler words and numbers and had the non filler words highlighted with red(With the colour of their text remaining black) and then used an extension to convert the text in one website to bionic and I was able to read approximately 3 times faster maybe if a feature to highlight the non filler words with a moving pacer will be added to Readsy then we will be able to read 9x faster. Things I used 1. Readsy Extension and Readsy Extension's settings 2. A Bionic Reading Extension To read approximately 3 times faster. I also read an article with and without those steps I think my comprehension was 3 times higher with those steps,Maybe a feature similar to Bionic Reading can be added to Readsy with a pacer that highlights only the bolded words(3) without Words Per Minute limits

@dv_fh that’s excellent to hear. Thanks so much for the feedback. I looked at Bionic Reading a little while ago before I started building Readsy but didn’t connect with the product. Hadn’t dawned on me to try and use both simultaneously, but now will look into what’s possible to embed in Readsy itself. Thanks again!
