Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a formal readability score?
No. It reports basic counts and average sentence length, not a grade-level score.
Does this tool give a formal readability score?
No. It counts words and sentences and estimates average sentence length; it does not replace a full readability assessment.
How are sentences counted?
The tool uses sentence-ending punctuation as a simple estimate, so abbreviations and unusual punctuation can affect the count.
Does it send my text to a server?
The tool is designed to process text in your browser. Avoid pasting confidential or sensitive material into online tools.
