Frequently asked questions

What is a good Flesch Reading Ease score?

Aim for about 60 to 70 for general web content, which is plain English understood by 13 to 15 year olds. Scores of 90 or more are very easy, 80 to 90 easy, 50 to 60 fairly difficult, 30 to 50 difficult, and below 30 very difficult. Higher means easier to read.

How is the Flesch Reading Ease score calculated?

It is 206.835 minus 1.015 times the average words per sentence, minus 84.6 times the average syllables per word. Short sentences and short words raise the score, and long ones lower it. The tool displays it on a scale clamped between 0 and 100.

What does the Flesch-Kincaid grade level mean?

It estimates the US school grade needed to understand the text, using sentence length and syllables per word. A grade of 8 means an average 13 to 14 year old should follow it. Many writers aim for grade 8 or lower for the general public.

What is the Gunning Fog Index?

It is another readability estimate, calculated as 0.4 times the sum of the average sentence length and the percentage of complex words with three or more syllables. The result approximates the years of formal education needed. Lower is easier, and a score around 12 is roughly high-school senior level.

How can I improve my readability score?

Shorten your sentences, prefer everyday words over long ones, and split long paragraphs. Cutting the average sentence from 25 to 15 words can raise the Flesch score noticeably. Re-check as you edit, since the scores update live.

Does the tool work for languages other than English?

It is designed for English text. Syllable counting is an approximation based on English letter patterns, and the formulas were built for English, so results for other languages are unreliable. Even in English, treat the numbers as a guide, not a precise measure of quality.

Is my data shared when using the Readability Checker?

No. Toolskyt operates under a zero-server policy. All calculations, data formatting, and file exports are executed locally on your machine.

Do I need to sign up or pay to use the Readability Checker?
