About

The Read Time began with a simple idea: help people understand how long it takes to read something. Our journey started with a simple web-based tool that did just that. As users embraced our reading time calculator, we were inspired to create more. We gradually added a variety of free tools, each designed to enhance reading related experiences. Our community slowly grew, and so did our vision.

With a large and engaged audience, we saw an opportunity to take our mission further. That’s when the The Read Time Speed Reading Extension was born. This powerful tool combines the best of our free web tools with speed reading technology, allowing users to read faster and more efficiently than ever before.

Today, The Read Time is more than just a tool—it’s a suite of resources dedicated to improving how people interact with text in the digital age. Whether you’re using our original reading time calculator, exploring our collection of free tools, or supercharging your reading with our speed reading extension, our goal remains the same: to make reading more accessible, efficient, and enjoyable for everyone.

We’re proud to offer these tools free of charge and are continually amazed by the ways our users incorporate them into their lives. From students to professionals, casual readers to voracious bookworms, The Read Time is here to support your reading journey.

Thank you for being part of our story. We hope you find value in our tools and join us in our passion for better reading!
