Atlastorya
Atlastorya is a mobile reading companion that turns photographed book pages into a focused word stream and, optionally, into voice-synced reading, summaries, character cards, and scene diagrams.
Making a printed work suitable for reading on a phone often involves more than simply taking a photo of the page. Following the text without losing your place between lines, adjusting your reading rhythm, recalling events after a long break, or reviewing a large cast of characters may otherwise require separate tools. Atlastorya brings these needs together in a single flow organized around books, chapters, and pages.
The app does not aim to promise a particular reading speed or comprehension outcome. Instead, it provides options that let you personalize how you read while supporting text tracking and narrative review.
Core value proposition
Atlastorya brings the process from page image to reading together in one place:
- You organize your books and reading ranges into chapters.
- You add pages by taking photos with the camera or selecting them from your gallery.
- You convert the writing in the images into selectable digital text.
- You read the text in a focused, one-word-at-a-time stream that does not require line tracking.
- If you choose, you follow the audio in sync with the word on screen.
- You add summary, character, and scene outputs according to your needs.
- When you stop partway through, you continue from a point near your last position.
This integrated approach distinguishes Atlastorya from tools that only scan pages or only provide speed-reading functionality. The product keeps content preparation, reading, and narrative review within the context of the same work and chapter.
What problems does it address?
Losing focus while tracking lines
In a traditional page layout, returning to the beginning of a line, skipping a line, or frequently going back to earlier words can disrupt reading rhythm. By showing one word at a time, Atlastorya aims to keep attention centered on a fixed area.
Being unable to adjust reading speed to a personal rhythm
In silent reading, the user controls the speed of the word stream. Readers who want a steady pace can choose Steady Flow, while those who prefer a more variable rhythm based on word structure, punctuation, and paragraph transitions can choose Smart Focus.
Losing your place in the text while listening
In chapters with completed audio analysis, the audio and the word on screen advance together. This lets the user follow both channels simultaneously instead of only listening or only watching the screen.
Struggling to return to the narrative after a long break
Chapter summaries and character cards with name-and-role information make it easier to review what was read earlier. The saved reading position also lets the flow resume near where it was left when the same chapter is opened again.
Struggling to organize spatially complex scenes
Scene analysis can present suitable narrative passages as a written description and a top-down diagram. Users can enlarge these visuals for closer inspection. Not every text will be suitable for scene generation, and the number of results may vary with the content.
Producing unnecessary outputs for different needs
Text extraction always runs, while audio, summary-and-character, and scene analyses can be selected separately. Users request only the additional outputs they need. Because scene analysis requires narrative context, selecting it also automatically selects summary-and-character analysis.
Who is it for?
Atlastorya is especially relevant for people who:
- Want to turn printed books or page images they already have into a mobile reading flow,
- Prefer a word stream that advances at a fixed point instead of reading line by line,
- Want to set their own reading pace,
- Want to see which word is being read on screen while listening to the text,
- Want to review events and people in long novels, series, or stories with large casts,
- Want to study a chapter with its full text, summary, and visual scene support,
- Want to return easily to their last position after taking a break from reading.
Atlastorya is not a medical focus tool, an educational system that measures learning outcomes, or a professional text-verification service. The best way to determine whether it suits a user’s reading habits is through the in-app demo and personal speed trials.
Current features
Focus presentation for first-time use
When the app first opens, it attempts to load a demo in the selected interface language. This automatically advancing presentation introduces the one-word view, red focus letter, and fixed alignment used by the actual reading screen before the user adds any content. The demo can later be reopened from Demo Presentation in Settings.
Library and chapter organization
The library on the home screen displays created works as scrollable cards. The user can:
- Create a new record with a book or work title,
- Open the book,
- Rename the book,
- Delete a book they no longer need after confirming,
- Create named chapters within a book,
- Open chapters from a numbered list,
- Delete a chapter after confirming.
Chapter names are freely configurable. For example, naming a chapter “Pages: 13–55” makes it easier to match the reading range in the physical book with the content in the app.
Adding pages from the camera and gallery
Content can be added to a new chapter in two ways:
- Camera: Pages are photographed and added one by one.
- Gallery: Multiple previously captured page images are selected together.
Added pages appear in a grid of numbered thumbnails. Tapping a page opens the large viewer, where the user can swipe between pages, zoom in on an image, replace the wrong image, or remove the page. Checking that the correct images are in the correct order before analysis is important for keeping the subsequent text and audio flow consistent.
Selectable analysis package
Atlastorya provides an analysis options screen showing the current status for each chapter:
- Text analysis (OCR): Converts the writing in page images into digital text. Because it is the foundation of the reading experience, it is always included in analysis.
- Audio analysis: Prepares audio, a transcript, and word-to-time alignment for the text. Voice-based and synchronized reading become available after this output is complete.
- Summary + character analysis: Produces a summary of the chapter’s events together with the names and role/description details of detected characters.
- Scene analysis: Prepares scene descriptions and top-down diagrams for suitable narrative passages. This option also requires summary + character analysis.
Completed analysis types appear marked on the screen. If a user previously extracted only the text, they can later request audio, summary-and-character, or scene output separately. Progress is shown while processing; the user is informed if there is no connection or the credit balance is insufficient. Results that are ready but have not yet been saved to the device can be brought into the app with the Download action.
Reviewing chapter results on one screen
After text extraction, the chapter is presented across four tabs:
Pages
Source page images are listed as thumbnails. The user can enlarge the original page and compare it with the automatically extracted content.
Text
The summary and full text appear in separate expandable and collapsible cards. Because the text is selectable, users can highlight a specific passage or use the copy options provided by the operating system. If summary analysis was not selected or a suitable summary could not be generated from the content, the summary area may be empty; the full-text area displays the OCR result.
Characters
Detected people appear in separate cards with their names and role/description details. This screen is not a relationship map; its purpose is to help users briefly recall the people mentioned in the chapter. The list may be empty when the text is not character-focused.
Scenes
Suitable scenes are presented with a title, written description, and top-down visual. Cards can be expanded and collapsed, and diagrams can be enlarged to full screen, panned, and examined. Completion of the analysis does not mean that every text will necessarily contain a scene.
Fixed-focus, one-word view
The reading screen advances by showing one word at a time. A focus letter within each word is highlighted in red and aligned to the same horizontal point on screen even as word length changes. Guide marks above and below the letter keep this fixed point visible.
This approach aims to let the eyes follow a single area instead of searching for a different screen position with each new word. Because the experience can vary from person to person, users are advised to start at a low speed and adjust gradually.
Steady Flow and Smart Focus for silent reading
People who want to read without audio can choose between two rhythms:
- Steady Flow: Displays words regularly at the selected base speed. It is suitable for users who want a predictable pace.
- Smart Focus: Adjusts display duration and brief pauses according to text characteristics such as long words, numbers, likely proper nouns, punctuation, sentence endings, and paragraph transitions. It gradually establishes the starting rhythm and adds recovery breaks during longer streams.
Words per minute can be decreased or increased in Focus Settings. The selected silent-reading mode and speed are saved for future reading sessions. A brief visual cue and light haptic feedback at sentence boundaries help make natural divisions in the flow noticeable.
Voice-synced reading
A chapter with completed audio analysis can be opened with Start with Audio. As the audio advances, the word currently being read appears in the same fixed-focus view. The user can decrease or increase playback speed, and this preference is saved for future sessions.
Audio mode does not provide an independent audiobook catalog. Audio is prepared only for chapters added by the user and processed with the relevant analysis.
Reading controls
While reading, the user can:
- Play, pause, and stop the flow to restart from the beginning,
- Move to the previous or next page,
- See the current page position within the chapter,
- Jump to a specific word by scrolling the word strip at the bottom,
- Track the general position on the page using the progress line,
- Hide and reveal the top and bottom controls with a single tap,
- Go back a few words with a double tap in silent mode.
When a page ends, the flow moves to the next page. Reading pauses when the app moves to the background; on returning, it attempts to resume the flow if it had previously been playing.
Continuing where you left off
When reading is paused or the reading screen is closed, the chapter, page, and approximate position are saved on the device. When the same chapter is reopened, Continue appears instead of Start, and playback begins slightly before the last position so the user can regain context.
This feature is not a detailed reading history. Atlastorya keeps a resume position only for the most recently read chapter; it does not provide an activity timeline or reading statistics organized by book or day.
Notifications
Because analysis can take several minutes, Atlastorya may request notification permission. When permission is enabled, the user can be notified when processing is complete. Notifications are optional, and permission can be managed in the operating system settings. The app does not have a separate notification center or notification history.
Language and appearance preferences
The interface language can be changed in Settings. Current language options are Turkish, U.S. English, U.K. English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Greek, Russian, Italian, Polish, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. The demo loads according to the selected language, and that language also guides the language context of the analysis request. However, OCR and automated analysis accuracy may vary by language and content.
Users can choose between the two dark appearances offered in Settings. Language, theme, and reading rhythm preferences are preserved on the device.
Credit wallet and purchases
New analyses use the available credit balance. On the Wallet screen, users can:
- View and refresh the current credit balance,
- Select a package of 25, 50, 100, 300, or 600 credits,
- Receive feedback about the purchase result,
- Use the Restore Purchases action,
- View and copy the anonymous device/app identifier associated with the wallet.
Atlastorya has no email, password, profile, or sign-in screen. The wallet operates with an anonymous identity based on the device and app store. The current interface has no membership tier or recurring subscription plan; the model is based on credit packages. No fixed number of credits per analysis is promised.
End-to-end usage flow
- Learn the experience. See the one-word stream and red focus letter in the first-launch demo. If needed, replay the demo later from Settings.
- Create your book. Tap New Book on the home screen and enter the title of the work.
- Divide the reading range into a chapter. Use Add New Chapter inside the book. Give the chapter a title or the page range from the physical book.
- Add the pages. Photograph them one by one with the camera or select multiple images from the gallery.
- Check the images. Open pages from the thumbnail grid and check their order, legibility, and orientation. Replace or remove an incorrect image.
- Select outputs. In addition to the always-included text analysis, select any audio, summary-and-character, and scene options you need.
- Start the analysis. Processing begins if an internet connection and sufficient credit balance are available. Follow progress on the chapter screen or wait for the completion notification if you granted permission.
- Save the results to the device. Use Download if needed. This action makes the result available inside the app; it does not export it.
- Review the content. Move between the Pages, Text, Characters, and Scenes tabs. Compare automated outputs with the original pages.
- Choose a reading mode. Choose silent mode for the word stream alone, or start with audio for synchronized sound and words.
- Personalize the rhythm. In silent mode, set Steady Flow or Smart Focus and the word speed; in audio mode, adjust playback speed.
- Read and control. Use the play/pause controls, page navigation, and word strip. Hide the controls when you want to focus only on the word.
- Continue later. Close the reading screen; when you return to the same chapter, use Continue to resume near your last position.
Outputs provided by the product
Depending on the analyses selected for a chapter, Atlastorya provides:
- An organized view of source page images,
- Digital text extracted from page images,
- Selectable full text for the chapter,
- A one-word reading stream with a red focus letter,
- A steady or text-adaptive silent-reading rhythm,
- Optional audio and word-to-time alignment,
- An optional chapter summary,
- Optional character name and role/description cards,
- Scene descriptions and zoomable top-down diagrams when the content is suitable,
- Analysis progress status and an optional completion notification,
- A resume position for the most recently read chapter.
These outputs are used within the app’s own reading and review screens. The Download action brings results into Atlastorya’s local storage; it is not a feature for exporting or sharing user files.
Realistic usage scenarios
Starting a novel with many characters
You add the first chapter of a novel from the camera or gallery. In addition to text analysis, you select summary-and-character analysis. As you read the chapter with Smart Focus, the rhythm adjusts to punctuation and paragraph transitions. When you return to the book a few days later, you first review the summary and the character name-and-role cards, then use Continue to resume reading near your last position.
Making sense of an action-heavy scene
You apply scene analysis to a group of pages containing action or changes of location. If a suitable scene is found in the results, you read the description and enlarge the top-down diagram to examine it full screen. You then return to the source page to check whether the automated interpretation matches the text.
Progressing by listening and watching
You add audio analysis to a chapter you want to read while traveling. With Start with Audio, you listen while following the current word with its red focus letter. You set the playback speed to a comfortable level and, if needed, use the word strip to return to a point you missed.
Needing only digital text
When you want to archive or revisit a group of pages, you use only the required text analysis. You open the full text, select specific passages, and compare them with the original page image. Because you do not request additional audio, summary, or scene outputs, the process remains limited to your needs.
Finding your reading rhythm through experimentation
You first watch the demo presentation. In your own chapter, you begin silent reading at a low speed and try the regular pace of Steady Flow. You then switch to Smart Focus, compare the rhythm around long words and sentence transitions, and save the setting that suits you better for future reading.
Conveniences for users
- Reduces the need to switch between apps for the camera, gallery, text extraction, and reading.
- The book → chapter → page structure divides long works into manageable parts.
- The one-word view offers a fixed focus area instead of line tracking.
- Silent and audio options adapt to different environments and preferences.
- Separate analysis selection gives users control over not requesting outputs they will not use.
- Keeping the source image and automated output in the same chapter makes comparison easier.
- Summaries, character cards, and scene views provide different ways to revisit the narrative.
- Continue reduces the effort of finding your place after an interrupted reading session.
- The demo lets users experience the product before preparing their own content.
- Multilingual interface and theme options support personal usage preferences.
Key advantages and distinguishing characteristics
A general-purpose document scanner is usually limited to turning a page into an image or text; a conventional text-to-speech tool reads text aloud; and a typical speed-reading tool converts prepared text into a word stream. Atlastorya’s approach connects these steps within the context of a book and chapter.
Key differences include:
- An integrated flow that begins with a photo and leads directly to focused reading,
- A red focus letter and guides aligned to the same point in every word,
- Steady Flow, Smart Focus, and voice-synced tracking options for the same text,
- Summary, character, and scene outputs that can be added as needed alongside the core OCR,
- The ability to compare the source page, automated text, and narrative aids within the same chapter,
- Device-based use without creating an account or profile,
- A credit-based usage model focused on the selected analysis.
These differences do not mean the product is better than other tools for every user. Atlastorya offers a narrow, integrated experience designed especially for people who want to begin with printed pages and move toward focused reading and narrative support.
Account, history, and data control
Account and history experience
Atlastorya has no user account, profile, email/password sign-in, or account-based library. The library is stored on the device, so books should not be expected to sync automatically to other devices or be restored through an account.
There is also no separate reading or purchase history screen. The user’s retrospective view consists of the book and chapter records. Continue preserves only the last position in the most recently read chapter.
Control over local data
Users can remove books, chapters, and individual pages from the interface, or replace a page image with another image. Despite its name, Clear Cache in Settings removes not only temporary files but also the books, photos, downloaded audio, and processed content stored by Atlastorya on the device. This action cannot be undone; users should review any content they need carefully before confirming.
Permissions and remotely processed content
Camera and photo-library permissions are used to add pages, while notification permission is used to report analysis completion. On supported platforms, the operating system’s tracking permission may also be requested. These permissions can be managed in the device’s system settings.
Actions such as creating a new book, starting an analysis, selecting a reading mode, and making a purchase may be recorded as events for measurement and advertising analytics. On supported platforms, tracking permission is managed through the operating system; there is no separate in-app switch to disable analytics.
Although the library and downloaded results are stored locally, a new analysis is not performed entirely on the device. When analysis starts, book/chapter information and page images are sent to a remote service for processing. Deleting a book, deleting a chapter, and using Clear Cache remove copies on the device; there is no separate user screen for viewing or deleting remote copies previously sent for analysis. For this reason, users should not upload confidential, sensitive, or personal material, or content they are not authorized to share.
Scope and responsible-use limitations
- An internet connection is required to start a new analysis and retrieve missing results.
- Analysis depends on a sufficient credit balance; no fixed analysis cost or amount of free use is promised.
- Content is added as page images from the camera or gallery. There is no flow for importing PDF/e-book files, reading web pages, or pasting text directly.
- OCR results can be affected by photo clarity, lighting, angle, page layout, typeface, language, and page order.
- Summaries, character results, and scene results are generated automatically and may be incomplete, incorrect, or open to interpretation. Important details should always be verified against the original page.
- The Characters screen provides names and role/descriptions; it does not produce a comprehensive relationship map.
- Scene analysis may not produce a diagram for every piece of content. Empty results are normal for poetry, tables, technical text, or passages without spatial scenes.
- Audio, summary, and scene outputs are available only when the relevant analysis is complete.
- As reading speed increases, the comprehension experience may vary from person to person. The product does not guarantee a particular improvement in speed, focus, learning, memory, or comprehension.
- Atlastorya is not a substitute for the source text, expert assessment, or verified academic, legal, medical, or professional information.
- Users should add only content they have the right to process, reproduce, and upload.
- Outputs are displayed within the app; there is no flow for exporting or sharing them as files.
- Account-based multi-device synchronization, detailed activity history, note-taking, highlighting, a dictionary, and in-book search are not part of the current product scope.
Brief product summary
Atlastorya takes printed book pages from the camera or gallery and converts them into digital text within an organized book-and-chapter structure. It presents that text in a one-word stream with a fixed, red focus-letter alignment, using silent Steady Flow, adaptive Smart Focus, or voice-synced reading. Optional summary, character, and scene outputs help users revisit the narrative; chapter results are stored on the device, and users can return to their last reading position. The product is a companion that personalizes the reading experience; it does not guarantee the accuracy of automated analyses or a particular level of reading performance.
