This "tech" has been out for a while but I don't know that we can easily get it on our phones and computers for general reading :(.

Anyone know?

There's a bionic reader extension for Firefox that works on mobile, but obvs that only works on webpages

Most such phone apps should be web pages, and the good ones usually have a web-page version.

Librera on fdroid also has this feature (but not referred to as "bionic")

Settings > Advanced Settings > Highlighting Initial Letters

I don't know specifically of any piece of tech that does this, but it would be very very easy to code as a plugin for a book reader app or something like that. It'd be more difficult to do well in more complicated text or mixed media, like spreadsheets, PDFs, or browser pages, since you probably don't want every piece of text on the page to have the effect.
