Readable Reviews

Readable.io is extremely easy to use, and it can be used on content from many sources. Drag and drop offline content, score content at a URL, score text as you type, and more. Problematic text is flagged with easy-to-understand reasons. You'll also get a variety of overall readability scores in the form of "grade levels" so you'll know whether you're talking down to your audience or leaving them in the dark. It integrates with Slack and Dropbox, which we also use. There's a good knowledge base on all things readability. There are even Readable.io APIs available.

This is pretty minor, but the user interface changes frequently because it seems they're constantly adding new functionality. So it may be something to slightly dislike, but overall something to appreciate.

I'm part of a engineering technical communication group, and in the past we've tended to write at too high a "grade level." Readable.io has helped us simplify our content and cure some of us of our passive voice communication styles. A huge benefit is that it helped us come up with KPIs to prove the worth of our department's deliverables. We use Readable.io reports to set baselines and then track readability and other scores over time to show improved content. Readable.

It provides me targeted copy recommendations

The plans are pricey. Otherwise, features are good and I look forward to upgrades.

Give it a try!

I'm solving copywriting challenges.

Readable is intuitive and familiar, making it simple to use and comprehend. It is a wonderful and reasonably priced readability software. This is the tool to use if you're looking for a way to improve the consistency of your material and overall readability. It's an excellent platform to use if you need to generate data or collect information in order to meet particular criteria.

I couldn't figure out how to rescan amended material and found it difficult to delete records that had already been uploaded. I ended up having to re-upload my files and start over.

Readable scores the readability of the content of my document, helping me to improve those.

We can put multiple assets into the tool to be analyzed, & the tool will produce different sets of data.

Most websites are subjective, & with an objective tool like this one, we still need to manually go through each website to actually see what was given a low grade.

We can use an outside, objective source to grade written content.
