Focal.
Focus-assisted reading.
Focal shows you one word at a time at a fixed focal point, so your eyes stay still and your attention stays put — at a pace where speed and comprehension actually coexist. It's built for the article backlog you never get to, the report you need to absorb in four minutes, and the long read you keep meaning to finish.
Read from anywhere
Paste text, upload documents (PDF, DOCX, EPUB, TXT, Markdown), import any article URL, or browse public-domain books.
Smart pacing
Optimal-recognition-point highlighting, natural pauses at punctuation, a gentle warm-up, and one-swipe sentence rewind.
Made to fit you
Dark, light, sepia and high-contrast reading themes; adjustable size, speed, and word position.
Private by design
Your reading stays on your device. No account, no tracking of what you read — and we run no servers. Free, ad-supported; never an ad while you read.
