recognition
One letter, one column.
The optimal recognition point is pinned to a stable column in cobalt, so your gaze never has to re-aim.

The idea
Normal reading is mostly travel.
Your eye doesn't glide across a line — it jumps. It saccades roughly four times a second, stopping, doubling back, re-finding its place. Up to a third of reading time is just motion.
RSVP removes the travel. The words come to a fixed point, one at a time. The word holds still — focus is the only thing left.
Feels human
Pacing that breathes, not a metronome.
Most RSVP apps fire every word at the same beat. Flash Reader reads the sentence the way you would — slowing for weight, snapping through the small words, resting at every mark.

consequentialbreathe
Long words breathe.
Dwell time scales with length and complexity. Function words pass quickly; dense words are given room.
A comma is a breath.
Marks become pauses, not characters. Sentences land; clauses settle. The rhythm follows the prose.
