Why
use it
- 01
Set expectations up front
When readers know the time commitment before they start, they're more likely to begin, and to read all the way to the end.
- 02
Always accurate, never manual
Reading time recalculates on its own whenever content changes. Nobody has to remember to update it, ever.
- 03
One standard, everywhere
Give Knowledge Base articles, news, and resource libraries the same polished, consistent reading-time indicator across your intranet.
- 04
Respect people's time
Help employees plan their reading around a busy day, and signal a content culture that values their attention.
