FAQ

What is Bionic Reading?

A typographic method that bolds the first few letters of each word to create visual anchor points (fixation points). Eyes are guided to word beginnings, and the brain auto-completes the rest — reducing eye movements and boosting reading speed.

Does Bionic Reading actually improve speed?

Bionic Reading claims 20-50% improvement. Independent studies are mixed — some show clear benefits for dyslexic readers, while effects on typical readers vary. Best to test it yourself.

What bold ratio should I use?

Start with 40-50% (bold the first 40-50% of each word's letters). Short words (3-4 letters) typically bold 1-2 letters; longer words can use a lower ratio.

Does it work with Chinese?

No. Bionic Reading relies on Latin alphabet word boundaries. Chinese has no space-delimited words, so the technique cannot be applied. Only English and other Latin-script languages are supported.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. All conversion runs locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.

Does the output preserve formatting?

The output uses Unicode bold characters (plain text), displayable on platforms supporting Unicode (social media, chat apps). Original font styles, colors, etc. are not preserved.
