About Breadcrumb

Long articles are getting longer. Your time isn't. Breadcrumb scores every sentence on the page and builds a skimmable reading path β€” so you can absorb what matters in a fraction of the time, without sending a single word to a server. Open any long-form article, blog post, research paper, or news story. Breadcrumb highlights key sentences and builds your reading path automatically. Click the icon anytime to adjust density, toggle highlights, or open the full section panel. πŸ“ A structured reading path β€” key sections ranked by importance, so you always know what to read next πŸ’‘ Section-level highlights β€” the one or two sentences that actually carry the weight of each section ⏱ Time estimates β€” know upfront whether this is a 2-minute skim or a 10-minute deep read πŸ”— Jump links β€” click any crumb to jump directly to that section ⌨️ Keyboard navigation β€” press j and k to move between highlighted sentences without leaving the page 🎚 Adjustable density β€” dial highlights from a light skim (10%) to broader coverage (50%) Breadcrumb works on anything: news articles, Substack posts, Medium essays, Wikipedia pages, academic papers, documentation β€” if it's text, Breadcrumb can map it. Why Breadcrumb? Most reading tools either summarize everything into mush or force you to read the whole thing anyway. Breadcrumb is different β€” it gives you a path, not a replacement. You decide how deep to go on each section. Skim the ones that don't apply. Dive into the ones that do. It's the difference between a map and a shortcut. No account. No subscription. No data sent anywhere. Breadcrumb runs entirely in your browser. Your reading stays private. Optional feedback you give on a site (marking sentences more or less important) is stored locally on your device only. Perfect for: - Researchers and students working through dense material - Professionals staying on top of industry news - Anyone who opens 12 tabs and reads zero of them - Install Breadcrumb. Read smarter.
