Get All Readability Scores at Once

This combined readability score checker runs nine formulas on the same text: Flesch-Kincaid, SMOG, Gunning Fog, Dale-Chall, Automated Readability Index (ARI), Coleman-Liau, Linsear Write, Lix, and Rix. Paste once, compare every formula. No signup. Use it when you need to meet multiple guidelines (e.g. Flesch for marketing, SMOG for healthcare) or want a quick overview without opening nine separate pages.

Writers, editors, and content teams use a combined checker to measure clarity across different standards. Search engines and accessibility guidelines favor clear content; many organizations set targets like "8th grade or below." Seeing all scores side by side helps you spot where your text lands and revise accordingly.

Why Compare Multiple Formulas?

Different formulas use different inputs—syllables, complex words, word lists, or character counts—so the same text can score differently. Comparing them shows you how each formula rates your content. Use the results to target a specific standard (e.g. SMOG for patient materials) or to get a fuller picture of readability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a readability score?

A readability score measures how easy a piece of text is to read. Different formulas produce different scores: Flesch Reading Ease (0–100), Flesch-Kincaid grade level, SMOG, Gunning Fog, Dale-Chall, ARI, Coleman-Liau, Linsear Write, Lix, and Rix. This combined checker runs all nine so you can compare them at once.

How do I check my readability score?

Paste your text into the box above and click Analyze. You get all nine readability scores side by side—no signup. Use it for blog posts, essays, marketing copy, or any text. Compare formulas to see how they differ for your content.

Why do different readability formulas give different scores?

Each formula uses different inputs: Flesch-Kincaid uses sentence length and syllables per word; SMOG and Gunning Fog focus on complex or polysyllabic words; Dale-Chall uses a familiar-words list; ARI and Coleman-Liau use character or letter counts. So the same text can score differently. The combined checker lets you see them all at once.
