AnchorKite Readability Checker

What AnchorKite Readability Checker is

AnchorKite Readability Checker estimates the US reading grade level of text you paste into its web page and reports six readability scores as you work. These include Flesch Reading Ease, Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level, Gunning Fog, SMOG, Coleman-Liau, and Automated Readability Index. Its headline grade estimate averages five grade-level formulas. The page also displays word, sentence, syllable, and letter counts, plus words per sentence and syllables per word. AnchorKite says the analysis runs locally, without network requests, analytics, sending, storing, or logging the text. Once loaded, the tool can continue to work offline as long as its browser tab stays open. It is free, requires no signup, and runs on the web. Syllable counts rely on an approximation, and the maker recommends treating results as a sanity check: lists, code, dialogue, headings, abbreviations, and short passages can skew formula scores. Guidance is provided for teachers, writers, workplace writing, general audiences, and specialist writing.
