FAQs

What formula is used?

Flesch-style approximations suitable for editing workflows. Use them to catch overly dense copy, not as a single quality score.

Does readability affect SEO?

Indirectly—clear pages help engagement signals and accessibility. There is no official “Flesch score” ranking lever.

Why do results differ from browser extensions?

Server-side fetches can see a different HTML payload than a logged-in browser session. Cross-check when debugging personalization or geo variants.

Can I suggest an improvement?

Email a short description of the workflow and a redacted example. Useful, repeatable suggestions get prioritized.
