Shift RSVP turns exactly the text you choose into a focused one-word-at-a-time reader. Nothing to paste, upload, or save.

A simple reading ritual
Select. Press. Read.
Press Shift+R
Or use the toolbar icon or the selection context menu on an ordinary webpage.
Read at your pace
Pause, skip, restart, and adjust from 120 to 900 words per minute.
Deliberately small
Fast, focused, nothing else.
Shift RSVP does one thing: it displays the text you select, one word at a time. No article extraction. No reading account. No feed to manage.
Selection first
Shift RSVP never guesses what matters. It reads only the visible page text you deliberately highlight.
Keyboard ready
Shift+R opens the reader. Space pauses. Arrow keys skip and change speed. Escape closes.
Private by construction
Your selected text is processed in the current tab and never transmitted, stored, analyzed, or sold.
Comfort without clutter
Sentence punctuation gets a little more time. Paid customization adds four fonts, four themes, Dark, and Auto.

Selected text is held in memory only for the current reading session. The optional license check sends only the Gumroad key you enter — never selected text, page URLs, or reading history.
