Brevio Reading Duration is a WordPress plugin designed to display the estimated reading time for each blog post. It calculates the duration based on an average reading speed of 250 words per minute and places a concise label, such as "3 min read," at the top of the post content. This feature helps readers quickly gauge how much time they might need to read a given article. The plugin operates automatically on all posts after installation, requiring no manual configuration or setup. It is described as lightweight, with no settings page or additional database queries, which minimizes its impact on site performance. For developers, the reading speed can be customized by using the brevio_words_per_minute filter, allowing adjustment of the default words-per-minute value to better suit specific audiences or content types. Brevio Reading Duration is also translation ready, supporting use in different languages. Installation involves uploading the plugin folder to the appropriate directory and activating it through the WordPress plugins menu, after which the reading time indicator appears automatically on posts. The evidence does not specify any pricing or licensing details. The tool is positioned as a solution for WordPress users who want to provide an estimated reading time for their blog content.
