Do you find yourself re-reading the same sentence over and over again? Or accidentally skipping lines in a paragraph, momentarily losing your place? You can fix these issues with the right reading technique, and this browser-based tool can help.

BeeLine Reader uses an eye-guiding color gradient to digital text. The color at the end of one line blends with the beginning of the next, guiding the eye through text. This approach can improve reading speeds by as much as 20 percent. No less than the California Public Library System uses BeeLine, earning awards from Stanford, Dell, and The Tech Museum of Innovation. Additionally, for every subscription to the 5-browser plan, the company donates 5 licenses to students in low-income schools. According to the company, “We do this so that our technology—which has been proven very effective for increasing students’ reading ability—is accessible to schools that might not have the funds to purchase, but have great need for effective tools like ours.”

Buy now: Get BeeLine Reader on 5 browsers for $29.99, that’s an 86 percent discount.
