     Vimbal would allow me to have more productive meetings with clients … and speed up my time that I take to actually read through the documents before I see these clients. I would use Vimbal for work.

[As a mother,] I think in order to learn faster and easier, tailoring [vimbal] to specific kids, so if they have different learning abilities or disabilities, the class can be tailored to them - which is quite cool. I think [vimbal] will be fantastic, especially if you can tailor it to each child to what they actually need, especially in a classroom environment.

Would easily spend $20-$50 per month.

     [As a Medical Science, Neuroscience Major] if I could have read some of the things I had to at university, that would be a lot better. [vimbal] definitely helped me, the sounds as well and incorporating all of the [environment], then the meditation section so you can actually consolidate that information. [vimbal] is really great.

I want to put Vimbal in combination with other treatments in the [neurodivergent] space. Most applicable people are in our school leavers employment program, between 17 to 21, on the spectrum and down syndrome and learning difficulties.

[Our disability sector employer] has 2,500 neurodiverse and disability clients.

When students can come in to take part in the demonstration. Clients to demonstrate Vimbal's software for a 1-hour feedback experience. If you are interested in pursuing demonstrating the software to clients, I think they would love the experience and give some excellent feedback.

     [Per day] I read 4 hours for work and 2 hours personally. I would use [Vimbal] for work, reading information, and understanding. With a 1500-page transcript, it would be such a time saver.

[vimbal] gets rid of distraction and helps you read, [vimbal is] very comfortable, very easy, and feels like less pressure to read and less concentration. I could [use Vimbal] much longer than just reading with the eyes [on the computer]. [Vimbal] is immersive and presented to you so much faster. I think the lack of distraction in the words being presented to me is easy on the eyes, I don't have to search, I don't have to maintain the place of the words in the rest of the text, it would make it so much more relaxing to read faster.

At the right speed, I felt like, yep, I'm absorbing this, no doubting or wondering what that was. It's brilliant, fantastic to experience it.

Personally I would pay $100 per month easily, when using for work - $100 per week.

     [Vimbal is] ease of reading at high speeds. It was awesome, the voice-over is a great feature for taking the words in, [and] the colours make it easier to comprehend.

[As a lecturer] increased speed and increased retention would result in greater conversations you were having around the courses you teach. You will be able to recall a greater range of information on the spot at any one time, whether that is with colleagues or students or [at] conferences. [University] researchers digesting large amounts of literature.

Re: Vimbal's Global Education Platform

[vimbal's] benefit is for everyone, learning is a lifelong thing for everyone in every sense. Being able to consume words and information is a big part of that. [With] greater accessibility [to education] and in turn greater equity, being able to achieve something like the MOOC's (Massive Online Open Courses) is where a single course [vimbal] can reach millions of people.

     I have severe ADHD. I can really only absorb maybe three pages at a time, [and] have to listen to stuff all the time with my headphones to block out noise and then I can absorb it, but even then, sometimes I can't. So I tune out wanting to make myself read stuff. If it's too slow, I'm just like, I can't, I can't do it.

My way to learn stuff is I've got to keep making myself do it until eventually [it comes naturally], and then I will absorb it.

Vimbal - I thought it was really cool how you could still [read], I was just trying to test how fast I could make it go before I could still not understand [450 words per minute]. So I thought that was pretty cool. I didn't lose it. So that was strange for me because normally I would lose it.

[Vimbal] definitely makes you refocus and only focus on [reading]. But you completely lose your surroundings - in a good way. So that's engrossing, like in a room. It was heaps easier than normal for me, I didn't tune out. It usually only takes me less than a page to tune out. It felt easy, [reading] normally doesn't feel like that.

(Would you now consider further study?)

That's a difficult question to answer because I can't mentally align with [study] being possible. Because I know that it would be completely overwhelming to think that I could [study]. I would never be in a position to think that I could do it. I think that I already believe that if that was possible, it would be miraculous. Because I've never been in a position to [think study] is actually possible.

     I help people master their mindset by using quite fast behavioural tools, having people understand their own mind, how it works, and how that creates the reality that they do through their thought processes.

Knowledge is power, but it's only power if you put it to use. The more knowledge you have, the more you're able to absorb the better ideas. [vimbal] was actually really interesting because I wasn't sure on [how fast] I did read. I wanted to go faster (than 450 Words Per Minute). I want to do more reading. Can I read more [now]?

I found [vimbal] interesting, I found something about myself - the faster [vimbal] is, the better is for me - because if it's that bit slower I go off on a tangent, I start thinking of other things. [vimbal] would be unreal, because interestingly enough, I thought I loved that - because I feel like - did I read it? Did I hear it? Both? I don't know.

[Prior to using vimbal] my whole question was about reading comprehension. I was definitely comprehending that. Oh, definitely. No question. So comprehension is definitely incredible.

I probably would have read 25 books [last year], but I've never finished one of them. I can just feel [in vimbal] I just want to devour that book - me sitting here now thinking about it, I wouldn't want to take them off!

     I'm the mum of two young daughters, I was a primary and secondary teacher for 15 years, and currently I am studying my PHD. [Using Vimbal] I can go and read this to do my PHD, now will have the time and [vimbal's] actually making it fun.

I also work with elite athletes (Adelaide Football Club). Vimbal would allow athletes to open doors and just give them more time. I think this will just start that motivation [of learning]. I think they will love the meditation stuff, so that they can switch off.
