EyeStill for Claude · free · no account
Read anything in Claude, and ask as you go.
A speed reader inside the chat: articles, classic books and Claude's own answers, one word at a time at a single point of focus. Pause on any sentence — Claude knows which one.
Ask Claude to open an article, a book or its own answer in EyeStill. The words come to you one at a time, so your eyes stay still. Stop on a hard sentence and ask what it means: Claude knows exactly where you are. When you finish, talk it through, or let Claude quiz you.
01 — What it opens
A link, a book, or the answer itself.
Ask in your own words. EyeStill fetches the text, keeps what's worth reading and opens it in the chat, in Claude's light or dark theme and in the language of the conversation.
Classics, from any chapter.
Public-domain books from Project Gutenberg. Long novels load part by part as you read.
Open Moby-Dick in EyeStill from chapter 30Claude writes into the reader.
The words start moving while the answer is still being written — nothing to scroll.

02 — Read and ask
A reading companion that knows where you are.
While you read, the reader tells Claude your position — the sentence on screen and the passage around it, never the whole book. So questions land on the right place.
- Explain this partPause on a hard sentence; Claude explains it and quotes the words it means.
- Recap so farA short summary of what you've read up to this point.
- DiscussAt the end, talk the ideas through.
- Quiz meThree short questions, one at a time, to check what stayed.
- Continue later"Go on where I stopped" reopens the text at that very word.
03 — The reader
Quiet controls, one point of focus.
Red marks only the letter your eye should land on. Everything else stays out of the way: play, a step back by a sentence, 100 to 1,000 words a minute, text size, a thin line to drag through the text, and a full-screen view when you want nothing but the words.

05 — Questions
Good to know.
Is it free?
Yes. No account, no sign-in, no limits beyond a fair-use rate limit on fetching pages.
Which books can it open?
Public-domain books from Project Gutenberg, whole and from any chapter. Books still under copyright aren't there — paste a passage instead.
Does Claude see the whole book?
No. The text goes only to the reader. Claude gets the title and the word count, and while you read, the sentence and passage around your position. Our server fetches what you ask for and stores nothing about what you read — see the privacy policy.
What can't it open?
PDFs and pages that need JavaScript or a login. Paste the text, and it reads that.
How is the pacing chosen?
In the chat, longer words and the ends of sentences and paragraphs get a little more time. Our web reader goes further — word rarity, surprise, scene changes: speed reading 2.0.
Does it work in ChatGPT?
The same server works as a ChatGPT app in developer mode; a ChatGPT directory listing is planned. Setup is on eyestill.com/apps.
