## Detailed Description

🚀 **Read 2-3x Faster with Spreed**

Spreed uses Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) with the Spritz method to help you speed read any text on the web. One word at a time, perfectly positioned for maximum comprehension.

**How It Works**
The red highlighted letter (Optimal Recognition Point) stays fixed in the center of your vision. Your eyes don't move—your brain just processes. This eliminates subvocalization and saccadic eye movements, the two biggest speed limiters when reading.

**Features**
✅ Select any text on any webpage and speed read it
✅ Right-click context menu: "Speed Read with Spreed"
✅ Adjustable speed: 100-1000 words per minute
✅ Keyboard shortcuts for hands-free control
✅ Dark cinematic interface for comfortable reading
✅ Pause on punctuation for better comprehension
✅ Progress tracking and time remaining
✅ Settings saved automatically

**Keyboard Shortcuts**
• Alt+S — Open Spreed popup
• Alt+R — Speed read selected text
• Space — Play/Pause
• ← → — Previous/Next word
• ↑ ↓ — Speed up/down
• R — Reset to beginning

**Perfect For**

📰 News readers skimming articles
📧 Professionals clearing email backlogs
📖 Book lovers reading ebooks
🎓 Language learners improving reading speed

**Privacy First**
Spreed works entirely locally. No data is sent to any server. No tracking. No accounts required.
