Who we are
Squeekly is made by two people. One of us writes the code. The other draws Nibs and every sticker you see.
We like small, playful tools that fix an everyday problem. Reading faster is the first one we’re taking on.
Why make reading practice a game
Most reading courses run on willpower. Games run on “one more round”. Squeekly keeps what works in games: short rounds, a clear next step, and a reward for showing up. It leaves out what doesn’t: no leagues, no guilt, and no streak you lose in one bad day.
Medals go to the practice that helps, like checking what you remembered. Speed on its own never earns one.
Why reading matters to us
Reading is how we learn almost everything else. Our mission is literacy: helping more people read well, and enjoy it. That includes readers who find it hard, so text size, spacing and typeface (Atkinson Hyperlegible among them) are free for everyone.
What we won’t promise
You won’t find “read 1,000 words a minute” here, because the research doesn’t back it. Every session counts your speed together with what you understood, so the progress you see is real.
Not convinced yet?
Fair. Look around first, no email needed:
- Take the free reading speed test: one passage, 5 questions, about 3 minutes.
- Read what the research says about reading faster.
- Get early access when you’re ready. One email when your invite is ready.
