GlassRead — Understand Any Document: Translate, Simplify, Explain

With GlassRead, you understand everything you read. One tap — plain words at your level, in 43 languages, original untouched.

With GlassRead, you understand everything you read. A lease. A letter from the government. A medicine guide. A form full of official words. News that suddenly matters. These pages were not written for you — but with one tap, they become clear: plain words at your reading level, in your own language, every hard term explained on the spot, read aloud if you want it. The wall of hard language comes down, and you just read. Here is what makes Glass different: it never changes the document. No summary that swaps the real thing for someone's short version. No chatbot that pulls you away from the page to ask about it. You read the actual document through GlassRead — like glass — and it simply becomes clear. The original stays right there the whole time, one tap back. You never write a prompt. Every tool is one tap. Click the GlassRead icon on the page you are reading and a small toolbar appears over it — no copy-paste, no new tab. What you get, one tap each: • Translate — read the same document in your own language (43 to choose from), right where it sits. One tap (Reset) brings back the original. • Simplify — change the reading level and the document rewrites itself in simpler words, from everyday plain language back to the original wording. • Explain — hard words, names, and figures get a quiet underline; tap one for a plain-language meaning in context. • Listen — have the document read aloud, in the language you chose. • Select anything — highlight any words while you read for a plain explanation, a simpler version, or to hear just that part aloud. And on any page at all — even without an article — select text to translate or explain it on the spot. • Story context — on a dense news story, get the back-story and the bigger picture so the piece makes sense. You can also ask a question about the document in your own words and get a plain answer. Who it is for: GlassRead is built for the reader, not the expert. It is for older readers facing a letter full of official language, for people reading the news or a form in a second language, and for anyone who meets a document written plainly by everyone except the people who wrote it. The barrier is the wall of specialist language, other languages, and hard formatting — never the reader. Plans: GlassRead is free to start — no credit card. The free plan gives you a set amount of reading each week; paid plans give you several times more weekly reading, from $7 a month. You pay for how much you read, not for features — every tool is on every plan, even the free one. On your phone: The GlassRead mobile app — the same one-tap toolbar on any page you browse — is coming soon. Private by design: • The Glass orb waits quietly on the pages you read. Nothing is read, sent, or processed anywhere until you tap it. You can turn the orb off in GlassRead's settings and still start Glass any time by clicking its toolbar icon. • It talks to one place only — GlassRead's own service at glassread.com — to turn the document text into the help above. It contacts no other site and shows no ads. What Glass never does: • Glass changes what a page looks like only on your own screen, and only when you tap — and the original is always one tap away. • It never changes the actual website. Nothing you do in Glass is visible to anyone else or saved to the site. • It never clicks, types, posts, or acts on your behalf. • It never tracks your browsing. Nothing is read or sent anywhere until you tap the orb. • No ads, and your data is never sold. GlassRead breaks the information wall.
