Skimlane: A Structured Speed-Reading Tool
bibryam · x · 2026-07-19
Skimlane is a tool that chunks long web articles based on reading intent. The author notes that modern content is increasingly SEO-friendly, AI-assisted, or padded, prompting the creation of a fixed speed-reading workflow: reviewing key points, claims, evidence, rebuttals, and action items before deciding to read the full text. The tool supports custom "reading recipes" for different article types and uses a Chrome on-device model or the user's own API key. Initially built as a personal reading aid, it has now become an integral part of the author's daily workflow.
