Once again, we enthusiastically award Stepware Inc.’s AceReader Pro with the “TopTenREVIEWS Silver Award.” Keep up the good work Stepware. Kudos on the new version and the improvements it brought to this quality program.

AceReader Pro can quickly help you overcome barriers that slow you down like sub-vocalization (the sounding out of words in your head) and regression. This powerful speed reading software includes over 250 comprehension tests and 13 levels of testing, and the ability to add your own text.

Our first reaction to this product is “WOW!” The primary reviewer of this product progressed from about 520 words per minute to nearly 1300 words per minute with 100% comprehension within 24 hours of using this product. Granted, our reviewer/editor may have a bit of an advantage, but if we saw results this fast and impressive using AceReader, imagine what it can do for the average reader.

Imagine flying through complex textbooks and instruction guides with full comprehension in half the time. We feel this product can help you achieve this goal in a short period of time as long as you stick to the recommended 15 to 25 minutes training sessions.

Since the last time we reviewed this speed reading program, StepWare has added some useful improvements, including the ability to display/flash graphics load PDF and Word documents (it works with documents created in Word 2007).* They also added easy to use page forward and back buttons, and they now offer a Triple Reading speed program in the Pro Deluxe version. The Pro Deluxe version also contains college and SAT prep vocabulary exercises.
