I lose my place too — that’s why I built Glint. — Eric, founder

Why this exists

“I used to lose my place reading. I’d re-read the same paragraph three times, then quietly drop the book.

So I built Glint — one word at a time, focused, no scrolling.

Now I finish books, and I remember what I read.”

— Eric, founder

Eric's 25-second tour — the pain, the pivot, share-from-anywhere, and the beta lifetime offer.
How it feels

The words come to you.

You hold still. Glint flashes one word in the same place, so your eyes never have to track across a line. Reading becomes something that happens to you, gently.

The colored letter is your anchor.

A single amber letter in each word marks where to look. Your gaze settles, the word resolves, the next one arrives. Nothing chases you.

You set the pace.

Slow as a stroll. Fast as you like. Drag down to pause without losing your place — there is no penalty for breathing.


What’s in the app

Quiet by design.
Yours by default.

All on device.

Glint never uploads what you read. Your reading lives on your phone, not on a server.

No streaks, no badges.

A daily ring fills as you read. If you skip a day, nothing turns red.

One payment. Forever.

Free to try. $29.99 once for the Glint Reader Pass. Never a subscription.

Dark by default.

Built for the way most reading happens — late, low-light, in bed. Cream is one tap away.

Bring any book.

PDFs, EPUBs, plain text, paste from anywhere. Glint reads what you already own.

1,400+ classics, free.

Frankenstein, Walden, Sherlock, Anna Karenina — already paced, yours just by opening the app.

Bring your own — or pick one off the shelf

Your books first.
Classics on the side.

Paste anything. Import any PDF or EPUB. And if you want a head start, 1,400+ public-domain classics come along for the ride — already paced.

Vs. what you’re doing now

Three ways to get through a book.

Glint

  • Attention One word at a time, in the same place. Your eyes hold still.
  • When you put it down The next word waits. Tomorrow it’s right where you left it.
  • What you remember The words go in. You finish the chapter.
  • Cost $29.99 once. Free tier first.

Re-reading the same paragraph

  • Attention Eyes track across the line, slip back, slip back again.
  • When you put it down You lose your place. You quietly give up.
  • What you remember The shape of pages you didn’t finish.
  • Cost Free. And expensive.

Audiobooks

  • Attention Hands free, mind drifts. You miss the last three pages.
  • When you put it down You scrub back trying to remember where you stopped listening.
  • What you remember The narrator’s voice. Less of the book.
  • Cost $15–$25 per book, or a monthly sub.

Questions, calmly answered.

Who is Glint for?
People who want to read more than they currently do, and have come to suspect that long lines of small text on a page are the friction — not the words themselves. If you've ever started the same paragraph four times, Glint is for you.
What's free vs the Glint Reader Pass?
Free on iPhone: the full reader, paste-anything, import your own PDFs and EPUBs, plus the full library of 1,400+ classics — all of it. Reading is capped at 50,000 words on the free tier. Free on Apple Watch: the Pace card to dial in your reading speed. The Glint Reader Pass is a one-time $29.99 — no subscription, ever — that removes the iPhone word cap, adds Apple Watch reading, and send-to-watch for the PDFs and EPUBs you've imported.
Does it work on Apple Watch?
Yes — and it's standalone, no phone needed. Spin the Digital Crown through covers, tap to start, and the Crown becomes your speed dial. The Pace card to set your reading speed is free for everyone; reading your own books on the watch is part of the Glint Reader Pass.
How is this different from speed-reading apps?
Glint isn't trying to make you faster. The point is to make reading possible when long-form pages keep losing you. Many people end up reading at a normal pace, just with the format that finally lets them stay on the page.
What happens to my reading data?
It stays on your phone. Glint has no server-side account, no cloud sync of your text, no analytics on what you read. iCloud is used only to keep your settings and library between your own devices.
