About Lucent Reader

Lucent Reader is an assistive reading tool that makes difficult text easier to read and understand. With a single click, you can simplify the text on a webpage while retaining the important information.

Lucent Reader also includes an adaptive quiz to help you find what level works best for you. Whether you’re reading for school, work, or just browsing the web, Lucent Reader gives you more control over how you read online.
