Spritz has a mission is to change the way people read and make communication faster, easier, and more effective.

  • The time consuming part of reading lies mainly in the actual eye movements from word to word and sentence to sentence. In addition, traditional reading simply takes up a lot of physical space. 
  • Spritz solves both of these problems. First, your eyes do not have to move from word to word or around the page that you’re reading. 
  • In fact, there’s no longer a page – with Spritz you only need 13 total characters to show all of your content. 
  • Fast streaming of text is easier and more comfortable for the reader, especially when reading areas become smaller. 
  • Spritz’s patent-pending technology can also be integrated into photos, maps, videos, and websites for more effective communication.
  • This is a definite "must see" (no pun intended)!  You can try it out on there website to see how many words you can read per minute!
