About Single Word Reader

Single Word Reader is a browser-based focus reader for pasted text. It shows text one word, phrase, or sentence at a time so readers can keep their eyes on one stable point.

The tool is for people who find dense paragraphs tiring, lose their place while reading, or prefer a calmer reading surface. That may include some dyslexic readers, ADHD readers, low-vision readers, students, and anyone reading long text on a small screen.

• Displays pasted text as single words, phrase chunks, or sentence steps.
• Lets you adjust speed, text size, typeface, display mode, and Day or Night appearance.
• Adds small pauses after punctuation so reading does not feel mechanical.
• Text-only playback runs locally without uploading pasted text.
• Audio uses your browser or operating system voice, which may use an online speech service.

Single Word Reader is a reading aid, not a medical product. It does not diagnose, treat, or cure dyslexia. The goal is to offer a simple way to reduce visual clutter and support focus while reading.

• Next.js for the web app framework.
• React for the interactive reader.
• Tailwind CSS for styling and responsive layout.
• Client-side tokenization for private text processing.
