Visual reading

Read Words,
Not Letters.

A pure visual layer for digital text.
Words you choose turn into single shapes.
Reading becomes recognition.

— The shift

Paper kept reading flat for centuries.
Screens break that limit.

How it works

Three blocks. Nothing else.

Simple pieces, endless combinations.

Blocks.

empty
filled
dot

Three types of blocks: empty, solid, and dotted. The only pieces in the system. Everything is built from these three.

To letters.

Each letter is a fixed column of three blocks. 27 combinations cover the full alphabet plus space.

SEE IT IN ACTION

One word, one shape.

No gaps between blocks. Empty ones vanish into the background, so each word fuses into a single, memorable shape.

Write it. See it.

DAY ONE READY
Voices

Early reactions.

Over time, the shape began to feel linked to the meaning.

SHAPE MEMORY

It feels more like seeing %, not reading “percentage.”

RECOGNITION

It started to feel like part of my own alphabet.

Personal frequency
Signal

Spot the difference.

One word is misspelled on both sides. In standard text, it hides. In MonoMoji, the shape breaks immediately.

Currently, MonoMoji is available as a Chrome desktop extension. A mobile app is coming very soon, so stay tuned.

MonoMoji currently supports the English alphabet (26 letters). Support for other Latin-alphabet languages is planned for future releases.
