Brutal Reader

Akarsh Yadav and Emmanuel Ikwegbu built Brutal Reader because they got tired of fighting through pop-ups, newsletter modals, cookie banners, and layouts designed to trap you on a page just to read one article. It strips any webpage down to just the text you actually came for. That's it. That's the whole product. Sometimes the best tools are the simplest ones—they don't need a Series A or a 40-page pitch deck. They just need to solve one annoying problem really, really well.
