FLOW runs entirely client-side — no server, no account, no uploads. It parses 13 file formats natively in the browser, including MOBI/AZW via a hand-rolled PalmDOC decompressor, EPUB, PDF, DOCX, and Markdown. No competitor does that without a backend. The speed ramp engine uses a cubic ease-in curve (120→650 WPM) that mirrors how reading cognition actually works, paired with optical pivot highlighting on each word's focal letter. Zero config, drag-and-drop, light/dark themes, fully private.see more

About
Imagine effortlessly absorbing information at a speed you never thought possible, all while keeping your privacy absolutely intact. That is the promise of 77. FLOW Speed Reader. This isn't just another reading application; it’s a fundamental reimagining of how we interact with text. We designed FLOW to get out of your way, allowing the words to simply flow directly into your understanding. Forget the hassle of uploading documents to some unknown server or creating yet another account; FLOW operates entirely client-side, meaning everything happens right there in your browser. This commitment to privacy is serious—there’s no backend infrastructure to track your reading habits or store your sensitive files. You drag, you drop, and you start reading, instantly. It supports an incredible range of formats natively, handling everything from common EPUB and PDF files to more complex formats like MOBI and AZW, even including a custom-built decompressor for PalmDOC, a feat no other competitor attempts without relying on external servers. It’s truly reading freedom, built right into your local environment.
The real magic of FLOW happens when you start reading faster. We engineered a sophisticated speed ramp engine that doesn't just blast text at you randomly. Instead, it employs a gentle cubic ease-in curve, carefully guiding your reading speed from a comfortable 120 words per minute up to an astonishing 650 WPM. This curve is deliberately designed to mimic and support how human reading cognition naturally adapts, making the transition to high-speed reading feel intuitive rather than forced. To further enhance focus and reduce eye strain, we integrated optical pivot highlighting that targets the focal letter of each word. This subtle visual cue helps anchor your eyes and maintain concentration as the words accelerate past. The experience is entirely zero configuration; there is no complex setup required. Whether you prefer a bright screen or a soothing dark mode, FLOW adapts instantly to your preference, offering a clean, focused environment that respects your data and maximizes your comprehension. It’s the ultimate tool for students, researchers, or anyone drowning in documents who needs to reclaim their time without sacrificing their security.
