Readshift - Offline RSVP reader for PDF and EPUB ā€” read faster, locally.

byā€¢
Readshift is a desktop reader that helps you read PDFs and EPUBs faster using RSVP and subvocalization reduction (OSR). Everything runs locally ā€” no account, no cloud, no data sent anywhere. Pick your WPM, open your file, and read.

Hey PH! šŸ‘‹ I built Readshift because I read a lot of technical PDFs and EPUBs, and I couldn't find a reader that combined RSVP with subvocalization reduction ā€” without requiring an account or sending my files to a cloud. So I built it myself as a solo side project. What makes it different: ā†’ RSVP + OSR (subvocalization reduction) in one app ā†’ 100% offline ā€” your files never leave your machine ā†’ PDF and EPUB support ā†’ WPM control + progress tracking ā†’ Pay what you want ā€” including free Built with Tauri (Rust + WebView). Windows for now, Linux coming soon. Happy to answer any questions about the reading techniques or the tech stack!
