FlashReading — Adaptive Speed Reading Trainer
**Read faster. Build vocabulary. Train smarter.**
FlashReading is an intelligent reading trainer that adapts to your vocabulary level in real time. Using RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) and AI-generated content, it pushes your reading speed while tracking every unfamiliar word — so you learn as you train.

Intelligent Speed Adaptation
FlashReading doesn't just time you — it learns from you. After each session, it analyzes your word familiarity, marked words, and confidence level to calculate your optimal reading speed. Adjustments are gradual and data-driven, keeping you in the sweet spot between comfort and challenge.
Push from 60 WPM to 1500 WPM as your skills grow.

Two Reading Modes
- **RSVP** — words flash one at a time in your focus zone, eliminating eye movement and subvocalization
- **Line-by-Line** — traditional horizontal reading with adaptive pacing
Both modes let you mark unfamiliar words mid-session without breaking flow.

AI That Knows Your Vocabulary
FlashReading tracks word familiarity across dictionaries and generates articles tailored to your level:
- **Expand Mode** — weaves your unfamiliar words into new articles so you encounter them in context
- **Speed Mode** — generates content at your reading level for smooth, confidence-building sessions
- **Paste Mode** — train on your own articles (textbooks, papers, anything)
Supports local LLM (Ollama) or cloud API. No AI? Use built-in sample articles.
