**LetoReader** is a versatile speed reader designed to enhance your reading efficiency. It supports high-speed reading for skimming or consuming easy texts at e.g. 400-1000 words per minute. However, it can also be used at lower speeds for better comprehension while still benefiting from Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP).
