Does Zox Pro Work?

[Bogdanm]

anybody tryed zox pro is it good can you actually read that fast?

[Bateman]

No. You can’t. Don’t waste money.

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

This is a quote from the home page of zoxpro.com:

Achieve a MINIMUM SPEED of 25,000+ words per minute – over 100 times faster than the average level of reading. After all this time, we still haven’t found a top speed limit! Be able to ‘upload’ books into your long-term memory in a matter of minutes

Here’s where it says that it will give people 77% comprehension at 25,000+ words per minute with 100% retention for life:

In my opinion, those feats are impossible. See also this article:

The 1,000-Word Dash

Not only that, but there is something odd about the testimonials.

Here’s a screenshot of an endorsement from a guy named “Will Baker”:

Here is the same photo on another random website[1][2] about types of people you meet in college:

Here is the same photo giving an endorsement of a product called absoluteattraction[3], but this time his name is Jerome C.:

Here is the same guy in a baby blog[4]:

I found the same guy over on a blog post about portraits, which has the photo linked to a stock photo site called sxc.hu[5]:

The stock photo page was deleted, but a version is available on archive.org:

So it looks like zoxpro .com and/or absoluteattraction .net might be using a stock photo and fake name for at least one of the testimonials.

What is it, normal techniques, speed reading, or hypnosis?
Why should i buy something when i don’t know what it does?
it’s like going to the store, having the clerk say “hey, this product is amazing” then buying it.
What does it teach you to do?

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

ZoxPro? Watch this video about “mental photography”.

Webmaster’s note: There were two spam comments here posted by someone pretending to be two different zoxpro reviewers. The accounts have been removed. I’ve leaving the spam comments here for reference.

Zoxpro Spam:

[williammoond] I am very satisfied with this course zoxpro.This course has taught me how to use an untapped part of my brain, the subconscious. My memory has become amazing, I can recall all of my subconscious memories, entire conversations I had 17 years ago, word for word.

[neiljohnson] I have been ZOXing now for 45 days. My ability to memorize music has substantially increased! I am very excited about my improvement and can’t wait for it to really spill over into every aspect of my life.

[Hypersonic]

Zox Pro is snake oil. It doesn’t work. I have tried it.

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

Sorry about the spam. I’ve deleted it. That appeared to be the same person who posted both comments from two different accounts.

[Taco]

Do you know a way that can achieve something like this, i mean maybe not 25k pero minute, but recall memorias por pages of the books?

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

@Taco

recall memorias por pages of the books

Have you seen this page – How Do I Memorize a Book?

Unfortunately, “photographic memory” probably doesn’t exist.

[OldGrantonian]

@Josh

Not only that, but there is something odd about the testimonials.

I’m amazed that you found so many identical photographs.

[Simon (Simon Orton)]

I assume Josh used something like Google’s Reverse Image Search and wasn’t just browsing all those other websites.

[OldGrantonian]

@Simon

I assume Josh … wasn’t just browsing all those other websites.

I’m not so sure about that.

@Josh posts more useful and interesting links than any other person on this planet.

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

I did a reverse image search by uploading the picture into Google Images.

You can try it by going to images.google.com and clicking the camera. Paste this URL into the “Paste image URL” box.

It should return a list of over 150 webpages that contain that photo.

[OldGrantonian]

@Josh

I did a reverse image search by uploading the picture into Google Images.

Thanks for the info.

When I tried it, I got a single hit on a “stock image” of the same guy.

I think even the stock image might have been removed in the last couple of minutes.

[Josh (Josh Cohen)]

Strange, I’m still seeing the results here. Maybe it’s different by region.

Did you click the camera icon first?

Then this option:

Then I’m seeing a page like this, at least in the US:

[OldGrantonian]

@Josh

Maybe it’s different by region.

I think you’re right. I can still only find one image (see screenshot).

Remember that recently Donsie told his pal, Vlad the Impaler, “Stop interfering with our scammers” (nudge, wink, smile). [I think that’s the first time I’ve seen Donsie smiling. Scary.]

Based on their previous Helsinki agreement, Vlad interpreted that statement to mean “Flood the US with scammers”.
