AceReader Pro

Speed Reading Software

AceReader Pro
Tools & Utilities

In today's fast-paced information age, it is more important than ever to be a proficient reader. AceReader will help you and your children read faster while maintaining or even improving overall comprehension.

AceReader helps you break two major bad habits: Subvocalization (pronouncing the words in your mind while you read), and Re-Reading/Regression (letting your eyes wander back to re-read the text).

But that's only the beginning. AceReader will also help you: Reduce Your Eye Fixation Time (time spent when your eyes are focused on a single point), Expand Your Eye Fixation Zone (ability to read a wider text width when your eyes are focused on a single point) and Increase Your Re-Fixation Speed (ability to reposition your eyes at a rapid rate).

When you master the art of speed reading, the process itself becomes something like watching a movie. You'll be equipped with the ability to absorb far more material in a shorter amount of time.

Today's discount applies to both AceReader Pro and AceReader Pro Deluxe. The deluxe version works with up to 5 users, and builds in a number of extra features including the ability to customize Tests, Drills and Games; college and SAT Prep vocabulary exercises; a Triple Speed course for more aggressive training and more. Check out the comparison matrix to decide which version is right for you.

School's back in session -- make sure that your children have every advantage this academic year with AceReader Pro and AceReader Pro Deluxe!

Real Users Say:

  • “As a speed reading instructor for Certified Learning Centers, I have evaluated many software programs over the years. However, once I found AceReader Pro, I knew I didn't need to look any further. The program is easy to follow, allows the user to adjust a wide variety of parameters, and reinforces all the techniques critical to becoming an efficient reader. In short, AceReader Pro is a must for anybody who is serious about improving both their reading speed and their comprehension. We have selected AceReader Pro as the software to use in our courses.”- Miriam Ruff, Certified Learning Centers, Silver Spring, MD
  • “Dear AceReader Executives: North Park Academy began incorporating AceReader into our curriculum on a weekly basis last year to much success! The students truly enjoy the "competition" to increase their own reading skills while the teachers can see the results, too. Many students have increased their speed and comprehension by 200 - 300%! We will continue to use AceReader because it works for both the younger and older students.”- Jeff Drozda, Indiana State Senator, COO of North Park Academy, Indianapolis, IN
  • “Acereader Pro is a great buy! As a Reading Specialist and Ed Therapist, I am constantly looking for good tools that I can use in my practice and recommend to parents and students for use at home. Acereader Pro is always at the top of my list. It is a fun, easy to use, kid and parent-friendly, customizable, no-nonsense, workhorse that actually helps improve reading speed and comprehension in as little as 10 minutes a day. I have used Acereader as part of the Bernard EASE reading fluency program for the past six years in private practice, clinics, and school settings, and it just keeps getting better. Kids can't wait to get to the computer and parents are amazed at how easy it is to use. I have recommended Acereader for kindergartners and lawyers alike! Whether you have a child who is just learning to read or need to get through volumes of text more quickly Acereader is worth the money!”- Alison O'Fallon, Los Angeles, CA
  • “I wanted to let you know that your program ACE READER PRO has been a great help to me. I have been able to increase my reading speed from less than 250 WPM to over 650 WPM. I purchased the program when I was in my second year of law school. Reading faster with greater comprehension helped me finish my law school homework in a timely manner and was especially helpful in getting me through the bar exam. I have used other speed reading programs but I like the Ace Reader the most. Some of the other programs have canned reading. I like the Ace Reader better because you can read any material as long as you can get it on your computer's clipboard. The results from your Program are fantastic. I plan to practice more speed reading, my goal is to read 1500 WPM or more. Thanks again for your great program.”- Jon Dowat, Attorney at Law, Aurora, IL
  • “I wish that everyone knew just how great this program is for children with visual perception, dyslexia, or other problem. Now with the auditory help, even children with audio perception problems will benefit from the program. Now that my daughter has the ability to sound out words, I know that we will be able to use this program to increase her word perception and speed. I purchased the program last year and am very pleased. I am mentioning this program to all of the homeschool groups that I think would love to know about your program. I am most likely going to purchase the voice add on program. I do want to thank you for developing a program that we can use at home. We would not be able to afford the visual perception help at a visual facility. I also plan to contact our county school district to inform them of this program. Keep making these tools, they are needed! A proud mom of a reading dyslexic child!”- Sharon Yarbrough, South Carolina
  • “Interactive Information wrote: "Being in charge of software selection for a school district is a big chore. Our schools reading scores were down very badly and we were searching for a solution through adding software. We found AceReader on the Web and tried the demo version. It took only a few minutes to come to a decision to purchase it. Since using it daily on a computer with 4th-8th grade students, we see a HUGE improvement in only a 2 week period. By using this piece of software we can see immediately by charting the graphs just how each student is doing and this is recorded as actual grades in the Reading Teacher's grade book. Another nice feature is that you can use this on one stand alone computer and it goes so quickly you can get a lot of students on it and tested in a short period of time.”- Kevin Gallion, Illinois
  • “I am thoroughly pleased with my new tool, and have been outspoken about it to my friends ever since my wife ordered it for me. (yes, I wore out my 30 day demo first....:-) Terrific concept, and adaptable to your own personal reading preferences. Congratulations to the creator's of the program. In my small opinion, you did a wonderful job.”- David Dundale, Georgia
  • “I find that reading faster is helping in graduate school. Your speed reader is easy to use and allows me to read the materials that I need to study for class. I am sure that using your program will help me get better grades. I liked being able to download the program so that I could get it immediately. Thanks for having a good service.”- Randy Hobson, Illinois

    How does AceReader Pro work with Windows 7? (both 32 & 64 bit)

    AceReader Pro has been tested and certified for Vista and Windows 7 (both 32 bit and 64 bit).

    Is this software multi-lingual; does it contain the german language too?

    Does it make sense to use this program, if English is not the user's first (native) language, even if he understands English?

    Can the test-texts be modified?
  • Feb 8 2010 7:52am
    Bernie Marasco (StepWare, Inc. Vendor)
    The user interface and the reading material that we provide is in English only. But please note that our AceReader products do support the International ASCII character set, so it will work with most of the European languages (i.e. Spanish, Italian, French, German ...).

    You can load AceReader with files (.txt, .doc and .pdf files) and also by using the clipboard. When you use the clipboard, you can bring in text from Web pages, word processing documents, e-books, e-mail, and the like.

    The Deluxe versions of the program allow you to incorporate your own text into the program for use with the Tests, Drills and Games.

    We also sell a text-to-speech add-on for the PC versions of the software. The text-to-speech add-on will vocalize the words as they are displayed on the screen. We have English, Spanish, French and German voices. It should be noted that these are very high quality human sounding voices.

    In summary, the program can be useful even if English is not your first (native) language since you can use it to help improve your English and since you can load AceReader with your own text (i.e. German text).

    I have two questions.

    First, I reformat and reinstall my OS more often than most. How is activation handled, i.e. I be unable to reinstall the software after a few times? I'm talking about on to the same computer, but a fresh OS installation. I've been locked out of expensive software in the past because the activation scheme would count installs, but not uninstalls.

    Second, portable installations on to a USB device let me bypass problem #1. Is it possible to make a portable installation?
  • Feb 8 2010 10:14am
    Bernie Marasco (StepWare, Inc. Vendor)
    It is not possible to perform a portable installation (i.e. onto a USB device).

    By default we allow up to 3 activations. If you need more, you will need to contact us via email or phone and provide enough information for us to look up your order and then we will proceed with helping you with additional activations.

    Your website lists a version for Mac OS. is this special good for that version?

    I believe version 6.0.2 is the latest for MAC OS and version 7.0.0 is the latest for Microsoft OS. Are the data files compatible between these two versions?

    Also, your website says you get 3 activations for up to 3 different computers. Does this apply across different platforms or must all 3 be the same platform?
  • Feb 8 2010 10:48am
    Bernie Marasco (StepWare, Inc. Vendor)
    Today’s special applies to the PC/Windows version only.

    The data files are compatible between versions 5, 6 and 7.

    The PC/Windows product and the Macintosh product are sold as two separate products. We do this since both products took independent development efforts. If you purchase the PC/Windows version of AceReader Pro, then you can install it on up to 3 Windows computers. If you purchase the Macintosh version of AceReader Pro, then you can install it on up to 3 Macintosh computers. Again, this promo is for the Windows version only.

    Hallo,
    1. is therea possibility to save the activation file in case of reformatting the harddisk (I´m speaking about the same pc, same hardware, only different or formatted harddisk). I´ve made bad experiences with an expensive software, which I had bought for using in a longer holiday - and already the 2nd activation failed - and the support did not answer promptly - so I had spent a lot of money for a software which Icouldn´t use for many weeks and when I really needed it. After that experience the kind of actiavation procedure has become an important checkpoint for the decision if buying a program or not.
    2. what would happen to the activation in case your company would no longer exist (don´t hope so) (I´m asking this, because I spent money on buying a software via digitalriver-regnow) from a company which possibly doesn´t exist any longer - and I didn´t get the licensekey for the money I spent.
    3. can german words be put in the games and exercieses (in the deluxe versions)?
    thank you for answering promptly in advance
    with kind regards
    H.

    PS please apologize my mistakes in english language

    Bernie Marasco (StepWare, Inc. Vendor)
    1. There is not a way to save an activation file that will help if you reformat.

    2. Just like any company, we can't guarantee that we will be here forever, but we have no plans of going anywhere. :) We have been around for 12+ years so far. Once you activate the program, it will be activated on that computer forever (unless you reformat your hard drive). By default you do get 3 activations for the purpose of re-installing the software and/or if you want to install the software onto another computer used by you and/or your immediate family. If you need additional activations, you need to contact us via email or phone with enough information to find your order and then we will assist you.

    3. Yes, the Deluxe version will allow you to incorporate German text into the program for use with the Tests, Drills and Games.

    Hello Jim,

    You should see the big green "Buy Now" button above. Just scroll up and you should see it.

    The promo is sometimes at the top of this page or underneath another promo. Bit du Jour promotes two products at a time, so you will need to scroll down the page if you don't see the AceReader promo on top.

    Thanks!
