CLUSTER READING-TEXT-WORD · 35 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2014-01-15
Speed reading training apps
This cluster comprises speed reading applications that often present text one word at a time (RSVP) with adjustable pace, along with a few reading-assistance tools for dyslexia and reading comprehension practice. Dated member entries span from early 2014 through mid-2026, with sporadic early appearances, a small grouping in late 2020, and a more regular cadence from mid-2025 onward. Traction leaders are Courier (1 star), followed by rsvp-reading and freereadingtracker.com (0 stars each).
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
