SlowRead.
One sentence at a time.
Paste anything — an article, email, or PDF extract — and SlowRead will walk you through it one sentence at a time. Free stays local-first in your browser. Pro adds sign-in, synced saves, and returning to documents across devices.
How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing. Read slowly enough, and even a single paragraph starts to feel deliberate.
A reader, not a tracker.
Three quiet promises about how SlowRead handles your attention.
No analytics circus
No event funnels, no engagement metrics, no third-party trackers. The app doesn't know how slowly you read.
Free stays local
On the free plan, pasted text, local notes, and resume state stay in your browser. No account required.
Pro saves are yours
If you sign in for Pro, saved documents are stored so you can return across devices, without turning the product into an attention trap.
A reading tool with four parts.
Free works without an account. Pro adds sign-in, synced saves, and a way back to your documents across devices.
Paste anything.
Articles, PDFs, emails, and extracts all land in the same calm reading view. The real app breaks them into sentences and lets you move through them at your own pace.
Focused reading.
The reading screen stays spare on purpose: one sentence in focus, the surrounding text dimmed back, and no dashboard clutter fighting for attention.
Annotate as you go.
The actual app lets you keep a lightweight trail of thoughts without turning the session into a document editor. Mark what matters and keep moving.
A quiet log.
Sessions leave behind a small private record so you can return to what you were reading without turning the whole product into a streak machine.
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.”
Privacy first.
Pasted content, reading positions, and your session log stay on your device.
