About this tool
Use the right readability formula for the language
Readability formulas are language-specific. This checker uses Flesch Reading Ease for English, Fernández-Huerta for Spanish, Kandel-Moles for French, Amstad for German, Gulpease for Italian, and an adapted Flesch formula for Brazilian Portuguese.
A score estimates surface difficulty from sentence, word, letter, or syllable patterns. It cannot measure factual accuracy, originality, style, or authorship, so use the supporting metrics to guide a human edit instead of chasing one number.
