Add the text you want to read in a quieter, more focused way.
Focus-friendly reading support

How it works
Read a little. Explain it back. Keep going.
Read in small steps
Move through the text by word, sentence, or chunk.
Explain it back
Duck Check asks you to say what you understood in your own words.
Review gently
See what stuck, what may be missing, and what to revisit.
Why DuckRead
Made for active reading.

Test yourself
Recall practice helps show what you actually remember.
Explain it back
Putting ideas in your own words can reveal gaps quickly.
Read in chunks
Smaller steps make dense text feel less overwhelming.
